Arctic Tern panels

Posted by: Tom on December 18, 1999


Pygmy is closed and I have a question for those who have built the Tern. I have built their Coho (great boat!) - In this boat panels were aligned for (before glueing butt joints) by various measurments made perpendicular to the long axis of the panel along a strait line. (great idea in my book). They do not use this concept in the Tern (and would only apply for s3 and s4 panels as the other two have a strait edge to guide.) Does anyone have these measurments? - or does it not matter?. (my concern being a small variation at a narrow butt joint of 3s panel would be bad new 8 feet later on the ends. Hope this request "measures up" to this site (first time user!) Tom
