Below is the table of offsets and the cutting patterns. (This is NOT an efficient layout, because two slightly smaller boats could be cut from just 3 sheets, which I've done before.)
The sides fit lengthwise on a 4' x 8' sheet. There's enough material to crown the bow and stern transoms. The bottom is to the inside of planking, but must be cut oversize due to using an external chine.
The boat will need to be lofted to pick up the angles needed to build the bow and stern transoms. But that's no biggie.
