Hi all,
I find having to place 1/4 inch shims to bring the new centerboard up flush
with the top of station 6. Just a note on what I needed to do also.

1) It looks like you have multiple pieces on top of the sides at the
mast step -- two, correct? (on my hull it looks like 2 will fit)
Answer: When Tom originally installed the trunk the bow end was lower than
station 6. In removing the trunk to repair the fit, I lost some height, so one
additional thickness of cedar/hybrid filled the gap. This may add a little
weight to the installation, but makes a thicker base for the mast step. The
original trunk top would not have touched the installed deck.
Thanks Bill for that note.
