I found this while looking around here.

Has this been accepted? Can I build and use these gauges and expect to pass measurement?
Thanks

However, a couple of us have developed a process to float the boat in the bath tub with a "special" ballast to determine where the boat floats and then a jig to set the boat up in that you can use to set the keel fin and ballast to the correct depth and angle. If you dig out an old, couple of issues ago, CRYA Newsletter, there is an article in there about it all.
