C12 mid frame question

Post by msujmccorm »

Cutting the mid frame for my C12. The frame will be divided by the center board trunk and the notes tell me to cut the frame later in the build process. Do I need to just cut the frame on the center line and leave a few tabs or do I need to cut the 1" thickness of the center board trunk out of the frame?

I don't see any other way than to cut the middle to fit the CB trunk. It is very simple.
Build the hull first and if you have any hesitation, do a dry installation of the CB trunk in the hull and cut the frame to fit.
