  1. I’m starting the 1/66 Mamoli America; and I’ve read what build logs I could find. My primary source at this time is Hamilton’s from 2015. Glad I looked at that as the openings in the keel for the bulkheads are quite off, similar to his experience. I’ll be adjusting for that. I’ve found something else that seems a bit out of kilter (described below). Input requested. My thoughts are that I should make the bottoms align as well as possible and not worry about what happens up top. Exposition The top surfaces of bulkheads 9-10-11 end up well below the top of the keel (Part 16) ; ¼” for 10 and 11, and 5/32” at 11. I’m not concerned so much about where the bulkhead ends up at the top, however, I’m concerned more about where the bottom edge of the bulkhead ends up at. Using a copy of the plan, I drew a smooth line connecting the bottoms of the bulkheads and matched that to where the bottom of the bulkhead meets the keel. 1) If I raise up 9-10-11 so that the top of these bulkheads meet the top of the keel, the bottoms of the bulkhead don’t come close to matching a continuous line 2) It actually looks like I need to lower bulkheads 9 and 10 further down, to create a smooth line I attach 3 fotos. Foto 1 shows how low the bulkheads are compared to the top of the keel; Foto 2 shows how the bulkheads meet the keel, and the need to lower 9 and 10 a bit (matching comment 2 above) Foto 3 shows what happens should I move the bulkheads up to match the top of the keels; this doesn’t look right at all
