Sorry. I should have responded earlier. The measurement you refer to is taken from the keel. That is the outside of the hull. Just measure inside and add the thickness of the ply. It only refers to the centre so you can trim the bulkhead at the sides to come flush with the decks at the gunwale.

Hi csim,
I agree with your interpretation of rule 2.6b. It clearly states that it is measured from the top of the keel. I have asked the National MEasurer to check official templates to confirm the correct interpretation.

Ok, so rather than from “keel”, its from the keel.

Hi Harold – on another post you mentioned using Cedar on everything except the gunwale caps. Can you suggest the right cedar section for the side tank tops (rather than hardwood)?
Cheers
