MEASURING
THE TRANSOM ANGLE:
1. Use a standard carpenter's square (22.5"x14")
2. Place a carpenter's square, with the long side (22.½") under the
keel or to the outside edge of the hull, parallel with the chine.
3.
Place the short side against the transom vertically.
4.
Take the measurement (see sketch)
between the inside corner of the square and the boat transom.
Each 1/4" is
equal to 1° in transom angle.
