of using a set of plans from Bolger, [and others] is that you get
the dimensions of the expanded panels, frames, etc. already worked
out for you. Changing the beam would invalidate essentially all
of the precalculated dimensions on the plans.

On PBolgers AS39 and the 45' Weston Martyr does anyone see anything
wrong with merely increasing the beam numbers on the table of offsets
by say 10% to 20% while keeping everything else the same? In other
words the same sweep from bow to stern but just a bit farther out
(wider?). We love his WMartyr design but it is a bit too skinny and
would be nice at 8' instead of 6'9".
