: The edge of the end stem is usually the point where the strips from
: either side will meet. That means that if you are not using an
: internal stem, it needs to bevelled to form a V. If you are
: using an internal stem, it replaces the bit that needs to be
: bevelled.

: That does mean that your strips will meet closer to the boat than
: they do at the moment. So you need to remove material from the
: end stem corresponding to the internal stem.

I just know that you are correct. I just can't figure out why Nick insists that I have it correct in the figure.
