Enlarging a plans built sailboat question.
I’m going to build be starting on a plans built sailboat in spring 2019 and want it a little longer than the plans call for. I’m thinking about an 11 or 12 1/2 % increase in Length. The question is what is best to do with the beam ? Also a likewise increase of 11 to 12 1/2% ?
I don’t know anything about sailboat design, woodworking I can do. My GUESS is increase everything in like proportions.
