: Sounds like you see curvature at the stems.
: Generally I cut a slit at the bow or stern stem (or both)a foot or
: two in length right down the middle starting at the tip end of
: the boat. You can then fold and push the two warped halves of
: the sliced stem together kinda til things look straight
: ..shave..glue..then shape and glass. You can hide the slit with
: a strip or 3.
: Also you can sand things straight somewhat.
: Be sure to read others advice I tend to be a little radical with
: the surgery since it's so easy to do and hide.
: No biggee.
Sounds like a good plan to me, best to fix it now as it'll bug you forever even if it doesn't effect the performance. You could just remove the inner stems then replace them and straighten out the ends while you're at it, should be a fairly easy fix.
