[QUOTE="Johnny, post: 374435, member: 13599"] level ???? why do you want it LEVEL ?? In My Opinion - ALL measurements should be taken from the standard points . . . i.e. - from the keel strip up the sides or, from the gunwales to where you want your decking. same measurements on both sides, port and starboard. Think about it - - - once your boat is in the water, will it ever be level ??? and/if it ever reaches a point of level in the water, how long will it stay in that position ?? For those of you that insisted on your boat being "level" while adding your decking, Did you actually work off of "level lines" ?? or, did you go with standard hull measurements ?? how did it perform for you after you got it in the water under your normal fishing conditions ?? Jus my dos centavos [/QUOTE]
