I haven't yet started my first kayak, but I'm already planning boat number two, and have been looking at a few of the Iain Oughtred designs. (My wife would like something to row, and I'd like to be able to sail it). Which models have you built? Do they row and sail equally well?

Thanks; Ken

: several of them (a sailing canoe and two sailboats) and all are lovely and
: work well. Although others design for glued lapstrake no one does prettier
: boats. I never go to the launch ramp without getting comments on my boat.
