Foredeck camber and mast beam radius
Posted: Wed Jan 26, 2011 1:07 pm
Hello all,
I am on the verge of taking the plunge in regard to a recore effort on #88 Natana.
The foredeck seems to have settled to a zero camber situation, I suspect it should not be so. Does anyone have an idea as to a radius that I should attempt to restore during this endeavor? I've scoured the internet to no avail. Additionally, I would like to prebuild a replacement mast beam; rather than take Natana out of service. Having said that, what radius would be appropriate taking this approach? The inner skin under the mast is rather deformed, thus my template making efforts have been fruitless.
Thank You.
