Note: Build is on hold awaiting a deck patter from a friend. I tried making my own patterns with "terrible" and "suck" results. Unfortunately, assuming that basic geometry and squares would facilitate a snug patter utterly ignore that nothing is bloody straight on this stupid hull. Oh... and the middle of the hull is sagging when view from forward to the aft. Oooof.
Thanks, Kobo-Hiryu.
I'm still going to finish this. I may make a post of some changes. Right now, I'm focusing on getting the Saratoga done.

Templates. I properly saved the deck print itself this time! Thank you!
