If I do a center spear, it won't roll into the others, it will come out from a straight line. But I just might make the side spears a bit thicker. I think I'll wait a few weeks for it to dry, colorsand it, and spray the center spear before I buff out the sanding scratches.
I can see what you are talking about. I think at the very least you should make the side spears a little bolder and give them more curvature to follow the boat likes.

I think instead of having the side spears curve in, I'll just bring them straight back on the inside. And I'll make the center spear straight edged too, with a more agressive transition at the base.

Curved spear on the pass side, straight on the drivers. I made them both straight but then changed my mind and brough the pass one back in. I think they're too long to be straight like the yellow and white boat. Need to leave them curved.

I can see it. Like it with the curved sides.

Jesus Christ Chuck, a little early in the day to start drinking isn't it? You just tried to link a file on your desktop . . .
