Cutting wood supports for frame question

[The Outdoorsman]

For those who used wood for their frames in their jon boats, in the front, the floor of the boat will slope up at an angle as you get closer to the front. My question is, what is the best way to get the angle needed for cutting your supports for your frame so it rests against the floor and be sturdy?? Thanks.

Maybe you could tape a big piece of cardboard to the outside of the boat and trace the shape or curve onto it . Then cut it out and check how it fits the floor on the inside and adjust if needed, then use it for a pattern to mark the wood.
