: I have built two boats, a Guillemot and an Outer Island. I used the
: cockpit recess described in Nicks book on both boats, and have
: never had any issues with skirt fitment. I plan to use this on
: all my boats.

I guess skirt fitment was not my concern. I just like the ease of having the strips conform to the shape of the cockpit coaming and then not having to worry about centering and cutting the opening after the fact. When you use the template, once your finished stripping, you're good to go with building the coaming.
