Thanks Bob, I think I’ll follow your advice! One average angle for the duration of the bunk sounds like the way to go and certainly the simplest! I too agree that the hull of this boat is strong and should be well supported using this method. All great info and very much appreciated!!

Thataway, my apologies! From your post it didn't seem to me that you would have considered a circular saw as an option. Thus, I was just outlining the process I go through. Your experience with all this certainly stands out to me, as your description about how to do it with a circular saw is...

Thataway, I use a circular saw and do the ripping of the board as its laying on its side. The saw can be adjusted for angle of cut and has a gauge so you know what the angles are. Of course the blade is 90 degrees when straight up but the angle decreases as the blade lays down and the base...

Well since the deadrise of this boat progresses from somewhat flat, say 6 degrees at the stern, to much more towards the bow, I generally bevel the edges of the wood bunks to similar angles. By doing so the boat will sit flat and is fully supported by the entire portion of the edge not just...
