Help needed.
OK, the plans arrived last night. The boat looks very cool, but there is a problem.
It looks like in order to account for the hull thickness the plans have to be modified accordingly. The station contours are showing the outside of the hull, and you have to deduct material thickness from the station dimensions as shown on the plans. How do you go about that? Is there a known technique to deduct 3/16 out of the stations outline? I am little puzzled at how to proceed, because plans have to be redrawn to the proper dimensions.

I think it odd that drawn stations used for construction should include the skin thickness, it being a variable of the builder's choice.
Is this design critical for needing to comply with racing rules?Have I missed something?
I wouldn't bother with correcting this minor but consistent deviation and progress as they are drawn and end up with a slightly bigger boat.Very slightly![3/8" all round]
cheers,
