Yep looks about right, and if you have it from the plans should be fine, as you have the images to relate to as well.

in this pic im now starting to glue the A/BELT to the hull an this must go on dead right or the rear belt will not match up then I will be right in it

frogman3 · « **Reply #187 on:** August 23, 2019, 05:29:43 pm »

Lookin at the top of the a/belt an you can see how much its got to be forced down onto the hull to glue about half an inch not good but hopefully it will pull in

frogman3 · « **Reply #188 on:** August 23, 2019, 05:32:57 pm »
