Re: Transom Angle
Here's how I'd measure it:
1. Hold your framing square so the short leg points up and the long leg points toward the bow of the boat.
2. Place the square so the tip of the short leg contacts the transom and the long legs sits flush against the bottom of the keel.
3. Divide the measurement from the inside corner of the square to the transom on the short leg by the measurement from the inside corner of the square to the transom on the long leg.
4. Take the inverse tangent of that number (calc.exe in scientific mode) can do this and you have your transom angle.
Does that make sense? If not, just send me the measurements. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
