[QUOTE="PSG-1, post: 258347, member: 6937"] I'm not sure I understand exactly what you're saying. I'm guessing the pitch of the V in the floor is throwing you off? I installed a sheet aluminum floor in a 14 foot dura craft, and a 16 footer, both had slight V-hulls. I used the corner of the ribs at the gunwale for my reference point, where they make the angle from the cross member of the floor, to the gunwale strut. Cardboard makes a good template. Know what else works good? A sheet of 1/2" pink styrofoam board from Lowe's or Home Depot. This best simulates a piece of plywood. [/QUOTE]
