John,

Thanks for your response and the photo.

: I've used Vaclav's 'pinched keel' method on several boats. It is
: relatively easy to get the strips to lay properly against the
: forms using his method. No heat gun or narrower strips needed.
: It is especially useful on the stern of the Guillemot, where
: many builders have difficulty.
