1.   First thing I did was squared up the sides. This was very easy to do , but you will need a straight edge to sand to, I happen to have a very straight work bench face to work with. So I know my Spar Deck is straight and so is the table, I simply aligned the Spar Deck with the table edge and sanded the foam down to both. Use 50 grit sand paper.

2.   Next I sanded the radius in the bow section. I used the same technique as for the sides, but had to make a template that I two way taped to the hull bottom. Then simply sanded to the Spar Deck and template edges. Again using 50 grit sandpaper.

3.   Next is the radius in the hull bottom. As you can see below I ran some tap down the sides to help with keeping things straight. I simply sand to the tape edges check with the temple to make sure I hold the right radius.

4.   The tape keeps me from taking to much off, otherwise you will end up with a wavy pattern down the hull.

5.   Now to the Bow section. Get your template out and sand a little at a time, checking it often with the template, I can't say that enough.
