MY C17
Re: MY C17
Good looking photo. As you point out the skeg should end at least 8-10" from the transom as to allow the water to come back together before reaching the prop.

Re: MY C17
Thanks for info on spray rail and skeg .
Cut the transom , now cutting the clamping bord . on the plan the cut out of the motor well is 316mm and the clamping board is 321 mm high from BL. It's standing 5 mm higher than transom. Is that correct or cut clamping board down.the whole lenght or just cut out of motor well.
i'm just measuring the stringers out and on plan E236/7 the stringers have a measuring of 305 Typ ? i got the length and width ,its just where it narrows .

Re: MY C17
Ok figured it out. Will cut clampingboard so it fits with transom. 305 typ = 305mm for all the next measurings if no other size specified.
Re: MY C17
That small difference is due to the transom angle.

Re: MY C17
The Jig is build. I cut all the transom pieces , and apart from frame A all are cut out . Stringers are cut , they are getting glued tomorrow with the transom.
Where can I find the bow mold or how do I draw one.

Re: MY C17
ok I cut all frames ,upper ,lower chine and bottom. Started setting the stations on the jig.Everything is still to move around , its not fix yet. Got to cut the notches into the stringers . Today before finish i fibreglass splice upper , lower chines and bottom.
Didn't figure out the mould for the bow , maybe when all the stations are in place i can figure it out.http://forums.bateau2.com/app.php/gallery/image/638

Re: MY C17
The old buddy bucket! There have been many a fishing trip where that would of been welcome compared to what was available.
Re: MY C17
There was a sheet just for a bow mold, you just had to trace it. Or you could take measurements from it.

Oh to have been the guy that came up with that idea.
