: Would Putz' book give me rib templates? I've got Morris' book and am
: considering using some of his measurement rules. I'm interested in your
: site as well - can you share the link?

You will still need Putz's book for information on form spacing and the location of the sheer chine, which defines the height of the side of the boat.

There are two sheets with specifications for the two boats described in the book. The URL for the 17 foot Walrus is:

The URL for the 18 1/2 foot walrus is:

http://www.geocities.com/eureka/business/7882/walrus18.htm

These should be easily readable on a full browser screen, and should print out neatly so you'll have a hard copy, should you want one.

Hope this helps
