I bought a project that was started in the late '70's that was mostly in good shape with some minor issues. One of the things I am looking at is the overall geometry of the boat. Tonight I found the "center" of the firewall and tail and ran a string between the two. The reason I did this is because the tail 'sprit' appears out of plane by about 10 degrees (as viewed from above or below). In looking at it further the whole thing seems to be out of square (as viewed from the top or bottom) by about two to five degrees (think trapezoid). It is "straight"; i.e., measurements from the string centerline are even all the way down within about 1/8".
My plan is for a wing span of about 23' with a 1' addition in width to the H/S. It is a standard KR-2. Is this issue a show stopper, or can I rig around it? Thanks, Mark W. N952MW
