: Nice job Tom. From the pictures it looks like your bow and stern
: are more plumb than the shots of that boat on the yostwerks
: site. That's a feature I'm looking for in my next build. Did you
: make changes, did the design change, or do the pictures just
: distort things a bit?
: thanks,

Btw, Tom's (Yost) plans don't show the shape of the stems to any real degree, so you're much on your own to how to shape them.

My first Yost boat is a much modified Sea Ranger and when I scarfed the gunwales they ended up being about 19 1/2' long, just as a trial I wrapped them around the frames and decided I liked the shape so I cut the stems to fit, VERY long stems :)

Boat works really well, but it's not the same boat.
