Hey guys, I've read most of your resto posts over and over again for years and have gotten more than plenty info and appreciate it all. I'm STILL in the middle of my stringer resto. I've tried to shape the "bottom" of the main stringers to the curvature of the boat and have gone through quite a few pieces of wood doing so only because Im trying to get it done right and not have to redo this again. I've come to the realization that I'm way over thinking this. So I have between 1/4"~ 3/8" gap mainly due to the hull isn't completely flat. I'm planning to use pl premium to bed the stringers also using foam spacers. My question is..... Do I need to worry too much about the gap? I know there should be a little gap so stringers don't set right on the floor causing hard spots. Appreciate any input.
