: The problem is, your pictures show the boat from the sort of
: distance that any normal person would view it, and therefore
: there are no visible gaps or blemishes at all (and of course you
: are far more skilled than I am, but we won't mention that).

: We obsessive boatbuilders view our gaps from a maximum distance of
: 3 inches, and then the gaps are very visibile, and we can
: agonise over them.

: Justin

At 3 inches, I wouldn't see a thing, and everything looks good within arms reach.
