Not sure if you realize- you may, but it wasn't clear in your question- the outer lines are the cockpit recess. You cut it first and then glue in strips to make it flat. Then you cut out the inner pattern to make the cockpit. That part the lip tapers forward but should be rounded off at the front. What I ended up doing is buying the sprayskirt I wanted, measuring it, and then using Ross Leidy's "Kayak Foundry" from Blue Herron Kayaks to design the cockpit template that fits my sprayskirt. The sprayskirt fits perfectly.
