If you are not too handy with wood, I would recommend looking at some of the sponsors who work with wood. Kevin 1988 11' Super Sport, 1987 Johnson 15hp. If you think education is expensive, try ignorance "Vegetarian - old Indian word for bad fisherman."

As far as a template, take the measurements from the exposed bow hatch. Kevin 1988 11' Super Sport, 1987 Johnson 15hp.
