In Response To: Strip: strongback length (J Law)

: Before I go making my strongback, I would like to confirm the
: length required. I will be building the Expedition single, CLC's
: site indicates approx 16'10", I figure from the markings on
: the forms that 17' is the required length. Has anyone built this
: particular craft, and what length strongback did you use?
: Also, has anyone built an adjustable length strongback and how did
: that work out?
: Thanks!

: Jason

I find it still easier to use an external strongback, then the length isn't critical. I've built a whole bunch of boats on mine.
