Hey Guys:
1st post. Started building a Pocketship a few weeks ago after looking around for a long time. Excited about the project but not much experience here and it's a bit over my head - which is ok. I previously built a Skerry from CLC with my Dad. Love it; great service from CLC always.
Anyway, my keel is not straight. The aft end is cocked approximately an inch to the right - and I'm not quite sure how to get it straight (assuming it's absolutely necessary) I live fairly close to Annapolis and have been down to CLC and discussed the situation with John Harris. I told him I had the proverbial axe in my hand and was thinking of starting over. He encouraged me to continue - but I wanted to get your opinion. Note that even with the keel being offset a little, the keelson still is able sit well atop the keel with a little sideways bend so stitching bottom panels to it does not seem to be an issue.
Fix it?; leave it alone?; start over?...take up golf....
Thanks
Jim V
