Because Don Aronow didn't use Cadcam technology in those days but rather crudely cut up and stretched hulls to create a new one I wonder if those offsets have ever existed.

Therefore I was much surprised to see the precise Kiekhaefer drawings of a 36transom.
Perhaps it is the prospect of photo that deceive me, but it do not seem to be a faithful outline of a Cig. 32' or 36'.

You have a point Marco,that chine position forward looks all wrong for a start.
It should be much higher.
