: Make sure your forms are properly oriented. Remember that the
: printed surface of the form is the one that is the correct size,
: the other surface should be closer to the center of the boat,
: where the hull is a tiny bit wider. If you put the forms in
: backwards, i.e., with the "back" surface facing the
: end of the boat, it will be a bit wider than the hull's design
: width at that point, and therefore "not fit". Does
: this make sense?

I'm assuming this is a kit? Printed forms? But if the forms are cut square, they should be the same size exactly on both sides.
