I'm building a "Jam 8". Complete plans were published in "Boatbuilder Magazine." It seems to be going together well. The hull is complete now. The boat is 8" long and 29 1/2 wide. We had a lot of fun with small plastic kayaks. I found these plans and decided to build a small wood kayak to paddle in protected waters. It will be very light wihen completed and simple to launch and cartop. I you E mail me I can fax you the complete article. The actual plans can be purchased for $40 from Edward Sutt Jr., 714 Green Bay Rd, Winnetka, IL 60093
