In Response To: Re: S&G: Plate development (Hubert Schreier)

I've been playing with a multi-chined surfski design for a while. I want a fairly plumb bow. I've been using the idea of extending the panels beyond the centerline and then trimming to the centerline as a means to assist in creating cooperatively developing surfaces.

Below is where the bow stands now (Dark lines are the trimmed shape, light lines are the trimmed off bits). I'm left with angles between the panel at the stem which, visually, I don't want. My current solution is to just plane/sand a nice pleasing curve after it is all assembled. Even just a bit of radius transitioning from one section to the next may be enough. Alternately, adding an outer stem that could be shape appropriately could do the trick.

The stern has a very small transom which makes life easier.
