Well, I guess that will teach me to put a picture up on a building BBS, of somthing I know has flaws. You've pointed out one of two things that I think will bother me about this boat. (the first thing being the concave area on the front right side of picture 03, not nearly as obvious).
The center line on the bow deck, does not run strait out to the end of the nose. That every paddler, or person that sights down the line will see, Not just the kayak builders of the world.

I think what you are seeing, is exagerated more due to the kayak not sitting level accross the beam, and the picture not being strait off the bow. I will definately check when I get home, to make sure.

I do believe that I should have been, and in the future be more carefull with alignment. I know I have a little twist in the hull. . I did check prior to filleting the hull panels, but somthing shifted before the epoxy dried, which I missed.

Oh well, I figure my biggest problem, is that the nearest ocean is 700 miles away.

Thanks for the tip
