4 thou. measured on the back of a boat? Complete BS.

Everybody guffawed and said "Those hicks sure don't know how to build racing boats, shoulda used foam core" but the builder shrugged and said that they measured the bend in the hull/deck with 15,000# tension on the backstay.... it was 4 thousands of an inch....
