All this time I thought I was building a redwing 21. This morning I went to measure her because I will be ordering a trailer for her next week. So I get out my handy dandy tape measure and find out she’s 22 feet 2 in. How the heck can that happen? . As far as I know I built her right to the plans accept for the pilothouse.
Not that I’m complaining mind you after all who couldn’t use an extra foot or so of boat. But I sure would like to know how I did it. Sorry I haven’t posted pics of Floozie lately but there haven’t been any changes to her that would show in photos, I have been doing things like wiring and mounting the bilge blower and bilge pumps and fuel tank. I will post some pics when I take her apart to get her out of the gara….er boat shop and put her back together on the trailer. smile.gif smile.gif smile.gif ......Phil

Slap a scale down on your profile drawing and see what it reads between perpindiculars.

While you're at it check for frame spacing. Maybe something like the plans said 22" and you built it at 24".
