: You also don't necessarily have to start stripping at the sheer. With the
: bigger surface area of the bow, cheater strips are usually required anyway
: (see Nick's book) and it's often easier to start the stripping where the
: strips will more easily fall into place like just above the turn of the
: bilge. Course I don't use cove and bead so that may be different?

: Bill H.

Okay Bill - how do you do that? I understood the shearstrip defines the curves of the boat - what do you align to?
