<DIV><STRONG>Jim,</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV> <STRONG>Cutting the top of the vertical fin at the
split line is of no consequence at all. The tailpost gives it all the
strength it needs, and you can put a little epoxy on the underside of the split
before you slip in the tail post to seal it off and give it more strength if you
are concerned about that. Larry....</STRONG></DIV></FONT></BODY></HTML>
