: Hi Al your boat looks good so far. The cockpit stripping is not all
: that complicated I just finished a guillemot a few months ago
: and all I did was use the cockpit template with the centerline
: and forms lined up and marked the edge of the cockpit recess on
: the forms it touches ( I believe it is 8,9,10). If I recall I
: stripped just over 8 and 10 with a couple of really twisty one
: on each side from the bow going over 8 and onto 9. Do the
: template thing it will show you what to do.

: here is a pic of my guillemot hope this helps
