In Response To: Strip: following a sharp chine edge (Eric Anderson)

The approach I used on the Night Heron, which has similar chines, is to use narrower strips at the chine. Strips about 10mm instead of 19mm conform to the curve quite well.

All my strips were bevelled.

That works well and is probably the simplest solution.
