: Hello Jay,
: Thanks for taking the time. What you're saying gives me some
: relief. What I'll do is re-cut the forms that are really looking
: "off" then go for it . . .

In the end - unless you are building a class boat that absolutely has to be right on its authorised dimensions - the boat simply has to be fair and can be a bit off the design without noticeable effect on performance or appearance. Just accept that station forms very rarely look "right" first time and - once you have checked to make sure you haven't made an error of course - make whatever changes are needed to look good.
