: Hey guys...
: I started on the Mod SeaTour 15 finally and I am drawing the
: offsets...
: I notice that between the cut for the chine and the inside hole of
: the xsection there's only 3/4" of plywood. Is that correct?
: I've been looking at the sample of the SeaBee with all the
: measurements on the yost site and can't quite figure if that's
: right...

: Aaaaand... the stringers come from a one side rough one side sanded
: 16' WRC board... do I need to sand the rough side???
: As always... mil gracias!

You mark out the hole for the opening in the middle of the boat after all the stringers are marked and there's at least 1" of frame between the insides of the stringers and the hole.

Rough side is fine, no problem.
