Get it aligned correctly before you goo the corners. After that, you're home
and warm.

The TWO-PAW-9 (a nesting dinghy) from B&B seems to be going well so
far with a couple of minor problems.
1. Its a lot bigger than I expected. I had thought my old Nautilus 8
was really 8' but this thing is big by comparison. It is still a lot
lighter than the Nautilus and will nest in less space than the
Nautilus covered.
2. Things just never seem to fit right for me but I somehow make do.
I am incapable of cutting anything accurately.
3. For some reason, I assumed marine plywood would not warp, it does,
I'll make do.
I am still not sure I like the stitch and glue method but will see how
it goes over the next few days. This boat building thing is
addictive.
Just a SMALL miscalculation. I finally got my Ivan damaged Nautilus 8
dinghy home and measured its real length, it is 7'4". By contrast,
the Two-Paw-9 is really 9'. I thought the Two-Paw looked huge.
