I'm hoping some here have experience building the Njord, one of Bjorns models. I'm finishing up stripping the deck, and have a minor problem to address.
There's a dramatic transition from behind the paddler, to the front of the cockpit. You can't strip across this section (not easily, anyway, and Bjorn advises against it), but as I move from the middle to the sides, I'm at that point where I need full-length strips. From about the 9th form to the 8th (I think), the strips take a 'dive' . If I continue on that trajectory, I'll have a 'pocket' on the deck, directly behind the back of the coaming. I'd expect this section should be at least as high as the lowest form, likely #8. Only way to do that, that I can see, is to place another similar height form anterior to #8, so that area is flat, to aid that transition going forward.
Hope that's sufficiently clear.
