Bob About Plan question
Hi all,
I'm looking to build a "Bob About" with the plans below and it says to scale the hull when printing it out to 12". Which part of the hull is being referenced? The deck? The Bottom or the Hull sides? If the sides - from what points do you measure as the edges are tapered? Thank you, -Mike |

Unless someone answers back to you, try this:
Meaure the deck from bow to transom and scale it back to 11 7/8" or maybe a bit less. That should give you a finished hull of 12" or a bit less. To double check, rescale, then cut out the patterns out of some cardboard, tape them together and you should get a rough idea if it will measure out correctly. |
