Short kayak plans?

Hi, I'm thinking about a quick boat to get me into a kayak this spring. Currently working on a cedar strip pram so I don't want to get to far off that track. What I'd like is plans for a 11-13' S&G Kayak w a relitively wide beam. I just want a pokeing around boat for sheltered and small waters.Some thing fairly simple, hard chined would be great. ( Have some leftover materials to use up.)Figure I could stich&glue the hull togeather out of some leftover 1/8" ply, cedar strip the deck and glass the whole thing. So far, all I can find are longer/ more elaborate hull designs. ( looked @ Mill Creak but that is a little involved for my current needs.) Any suggestions for a source or do I need to design it myself ( PlyBoats)?. Thanks Dave Aguiar
