Revision after 15 years . . One of our builders brought the following to our attention:
- a small kink in the side panel
- a wrong location for the motorwell bulkhead.
Most builders will not notice any problem. They will fair the small kink with the batten and if they use the motorwell sides on the jig, as we state in the building notes, they will not need that location.
That is probably why we never heard of the dimensions mistakes.
However, the plans must be correct and here are the revisions.
For all plans sold before September 5th 2008:
- on drawing D107/6, side panel dimensions, the last one towards the bow before the tip should be 5" (126 mm), not 5-3/8".
- on drawing D107/5, motorwell location, distance from the transom is 20" (510 mm) not 2' 2". Note that that distance is given again on D107/3 and there it was correct. And again, try not to use that dimension, use the motorwell sides as we write in the building notes. You can't go wrong that way.
If you did build your OB15 on a jig as we specify and if you used a fairing batten, everything was perfectly correct. |
