Hi all,
After reciving issue No17, i wanted to start building my hull, ive glued all the ribs and keel parts and loose assembled them, (as per the instructions). After placing the first deck on my boat i noticed that it was all out of line. upon closer inspection i found the keel to be bent. i've tried soaking in hot water and leaving over night,(with a brick on it) to dry out,to try straighten them out, a bit better but still bent. How critical is it to have the keel perfectly straight, and can someone tell me how to d it. thanks.
