gunslinger4hire Posted May 6, 2013 #1 Posted May 6, 2013 Howdy, i have some questions about how i should do the garboard strakes best. a) propper alignment - how do i finally align the garboard, especially that it wouldn't come to high at the bow? planking the deadwood - when i dry fit my garboard, if i let it run without bending, it will run in a steep angle up the deadwood. is the garboard wrong or should i bend it, that it follows the keel?
