Ihave 2 bilge keels on my JB 4" deep,36" long. no leeboard when
sailing we use a paddle and bodies moving up and down the boat to
steer. only use the shallow rudder in a good breeze. too easy.

Thanks. I have that book too. I'm wondering if there's any reason
why I would NOT want to put them on the outside.

Junebug with external chine logs


I have a library book here by Jim Michalak with some plans using external
chine logs along with a method of installing lee boards. The name of the book is
"Boatbuilding for Beginners and Beyond"

I'm thinking about maybe building a Junebug with external chine logs.
Seems like they'd be easier to do outside, would provide more
protection to the chine, and make internal framing easier. I realize I
would have to tweak the leeboard maybe.

Any other issues I may not have considered?
