Anut, I agree with ElMar ....but when i put combing boards on my Wayne Beal i didnt want that Hard Core commercial look like the gill netter in the photo.....when you build them give them a rounded edge...

Never seen one made like that. Nice. I have one that clamps over the transom when we want to use it. Good to have.

Best way is to add lee boards like this Duffy has and in the other photo. The only thing a do not like about le baords is you cannot sit on the wash rail. By the way how pretty is this Duffy everything was done correctly Plus C-7 power & Genny. She is a Diamond!
