: Ah, OK. I used the Morris/Petersen method where the beam is lashed on one
: side only.

Boat #2 is being built via the Morris style, and I've yet to see Petersen's work, so not sure about that. The only variation I used from Morris' method was to add the small swoops to the ends. I am doing his relief work at the ends of the apummaqs, and since I started with 2" boards, it would have left them dangerously narrow. The swoops added height and very little of the apummaq was removed.

: Have fun!

I don't get to work on it near as much as I had hoped, but I surely enjoy the little time I DO spend on them.. Thanks!
