Hey folks! I'm in the middle of my Broadbill build and have cut my bulkheads according to my own measurements. I have deviated a bit from Devlin's plans and have added 4" to the boat's overall length and 1" to the heights of the sides. Each bulkhead's tallest centerline measurement was also increased by 1.5". I used a batten to get the curve, but it's not looking right to me. I haven't seen anything in Devlin's plans about a particular camber height, and I was wondering if ya'll could offer me any help.
I looked at Eric's "Scaulp Build", and saw how he used several battens to establish his own curves. I also read Devlin's book about his "cheater method" for drawing camber lines. Any other ideas? This is my first boat build with bulkheads and a deck and I'm a bit stumped.
Grace and peace,
David
