I built a strip canoe in 1986 and it has since gone away. Now i am building a cedar strip canoe using "Building a Strip Canoe" by Gil Gilpatrick. I chose the "Puddle Duck" and shortened it to 12'. I am laying up the strips from Gunwales up to center, but at the transition from side to bottom (at waterline) I am getting a serious bulge and it doesn't want to lay down against the forms. Any suggestions as to how to remedy this?
I am using 6"x 3/4" x 10' cedar with one side rough. I sawed the boards into 1/4" strips and everything is straight up to the transition line.
