In Response To: S&G: fiberglass taped butt joint vs scarf (Brian T. Cunningham)

I did the jig thing the other night, temporay setup, just to see if I could jack the hull back into shape.

IT WORKED!! Yipee!!

Now I have to come up with a more perment setup.

I'll have to fillet and tape the keel, and see how much it changes once the jig is removed.
