: That step may not be covered in detail because it's really simple.
: Once the first two frames are in place, you attach the gunwhales
: to them. With the gunwhales, in place, you can attach the other
: frames to the gunwhales, spacing them by placing tape on the
: strong back to mark the positions. Does this make sense?

Spacing isn't where I am drawing a blank. Setting the height for strong back stations 1 and 8, I am assuming I need to go back to the offsets and use Keel/HAB to adjust the height above baseline for 1 and 8 with 4 being at 0. I assume this needs to be done with the keel or piece of keel material in place to determine rocker....but assuming caused a lot of problems in life to this point

Thanx

Dan
