This is good to know, and it is a new boat.

So far, if I get the keel lined up, it seems the deck bar isn't. And if I
get the deck bar lined up... A whole lot of time spent getting this right,
as I know until the skin gets it's final shape getting it lined up is very
important.

I may play with the tension order of the extension bars as Ralph suggested.
I've been doing it according to the video, but a slight variation might
help.

So far it is a wicked problem. But I've only assembled it 3 times so far.
I'll keep plugging at it.

Thanks for the help!
