Hi Don. Looks like you are off to a good start. It looks like you started with frame number 7, you should mark the frame as 7 F or 7A, for the forward frame or aft frame due to the way the frame are numbered.
This is a copy of my frame distribution drawing you can use as a reference.

Hi Don, sorry I did not get back sooner, we went to a birthday party at Pawleys Island for my son-in-law last night and got back home late.
Plate No. 4 Figure 4 Shows the evolution of the rabbet at different stages up the sternpost though a series of sections. Does not pertain to frames.
On page 29 of the instruction manual Plate No. 1 shows M.G. as the high point of the keel.
On page 40 of the instruction manual Plate No. 5 has the pattern for M.G. Av in the upper right corner of the page.
Note: The after frame M.G. Ar, pattern is located on page 42.
