Daggerboard trunk (1)
The construction and subsequent installation of the daggerboard trunk is described both on the plans and in the instructions. As already happened, though, there are several ambiguities: first of all, the plywood thickness is specified to be 1/4" (6 mm) on the plans and 1/2" (12 mm) in the instructions. We decided to use the 3/8" (10 mm) plywood. Also the installation sequence is pretty different in the two sources. So we spent quite some time studying the drawings and reading the instructions, and will probably develop our own sequence.
