Could someone please describe to me, or perhaps post a few pictures, of the stem tip detail for an OTCA with outer stems? The boat I am working on is a 1916 18 foot OTCA with outer stems. It came to me already partially disassembled, so I did not get a look at this detail. I have to splice in new stem tips, inwale and outwale tips, and make all new outer stems, so I would like to have some idea of what the finished product should look like. I am particularly interested in how the outer stem meets the inwales/outwales. Thanks! LEW
