Default need help building a wood sailboat, simple questions

Hello,

I am trying to build the "tiny bear" boat (see plan here
http://members.aol.com/polytarp/tbear.htm) but there is a step that I can
not figure out.

I am suposed to put together the bow plate, the transom and a mould frame.
But I do not understand how I can place my deck and bilge clamp, more
especially which order to place them in order to have them bending correctly
(ie: the deck one should only bend laterally, but the bilge one should bend
both laterally and vertically.

Should I: place my deck clamp first, fix it, and then hope than when I place
my bilge clamp, it will not cause the deck clamp to bend vertically?

thanks, cyrille
