Al's plans sound right on (no surprise there), several Elco drawings I've seen state a camber of 4 1/2" in 21' beam.

Knowing that, you can get a radius for the deck if that would help. If the arc of the deck camber was part of a circle, its radius would be 1766.25".

Some other cambers I've dug up from Elco plans:
Chart house roof: 3.5" in 8' 3" according to Elco drawing 3231, Construction Of Bridge And Chart Room Trunk.
Day room roof: 3.5" in 8' 3" according to Elco drawing 3230, Construction Of Cabin Trunk.
Engine hatch: 2" in 8' according to Elco drawing 3086, Type Sections.
