: Building my first child and i'm noticing some hybrids use a shear
: clamp and others don't. I don't see any mention of one in my
: plans, but does anyone know if the Hybrid Night Heron uses a
: shear clamp?

Simple answer: No. The deck meets the hull at obtuse angles. A sheer clamp wouldn't work.
