Fs-17 Clamping Board and Tapping
I am just about ready to tape the inside of my FS-17 but am unsure about how to proceed. The concern i face is should i build-up a huge fillet for the tape to follow the transom from where there is no clamping board to where there is a clamping board ( 1 1/8" difference). Or do I build a sacrif...

FS-17 Motorwell Sides
Drawing D284/5 shows the motorwell sides with the baseline. However if I try fit this baseline up with the baselines from the rest of the bulkheads i.e. the transom and the motorwell bulkhead then my transom slopes the wrong way or I have motorwell sides hanging out the bottom of my boat :?: Should ...

Thank you everyone for the clarification. And Lower it isnt exclusively my thread so feel free to be a part of it. Ultimately I am leaning towards putting a seat in front of the motorwell bulkhead on each side as i didnt think that while underway the 2 seats beside the engine will not be very inviti...

FS-17 Motorwell Bulkhead
Is it posible to put a camber on top of the motorwell bulkhead to match or at least look similar to the camber on the transom? :?: I am going to install a gunwale and would like to camber the motorwell boxes with this same camber or would I have to install the cambered tops over the top of a flat su...

N-7 Nutshell Wet
Finally after much stalling and procrastinating i got it wet even though i havent painting the contrasting colour on the rub rails and i spaced the oars too close together. It aint much to look at but it rows like a dream ( even with the oars incorrectly spaced ) and it didn't even look like sinking...

N7- Sealed and foam filled seats and weather do they mix?
The N7 I am building will be left out in the weather hopefully up-side down, the question I have is will the fore and aft seats that are sealed and filled with flotation foam have a problem with water build-up due to condensation or should I leave an open hole in each of the seats or even a bung hol...

C-19 Bottom and side panels
In order to get all the bottom and side panels cut from the 8 sheets of 6mm plywood as prescribed in the BOM i would have to have at least 1 splice that runs along the length of about half a sheet (running to where the side panels meet at the bow :( ). My question is am i missing the obvious solutio...
