[QUOTE="AZAvenger, post: 53612, member: 848"] I would suggest a piece of cardboard cut roughly in the shape of the bow section you are contouring...lay the cardboard on your decking and then use a compas (or if you don have one simply attach a sharpie marker to a ruler using tape) trace the side of the boat with the compass/ruler allowing the pencil/sharpie to mark the cardboard with the same contour. You should then be able to cut out the cardboard and have it close to the shape you want, then refine the shape for one side. Take this template and create another one for the other side, place both templates in the bow, overlap if needed, duct tape them together and you should have template for the bow... I am getting ready to do the same on my boat this weekend...I will take pictures to help illustrat... [/QUOTE]
