Hello, not sure if I have the correct angle on the transom ( please excuse my terminology if wrong I’m from the prairies in Canada. Bluenose II AL kit. Any advice would be greatly appreciative as this is my second build.

Kind regards,

If your kit came with a plan of the ship you could use a piece of paper carefully folded to check.  You need the side view or Elevation of the hull. Maybe it’s on the sail plan too?  Put the edge of a piece of paper so it lines up with the lines of the deck, holding it so it won’t slip. Then fold up one corner of the paper till the edge on the folded part matches the transom on the drawing. You can then use this template to test the angle on the model.

Thanks, I did follow your advice, as the model didn't come with plans I found some pictures on the net and matched it to those. Hopefully I got it right.
