My friend is currently building an 18' Guillemot that we modified on the computer. We just took the forms for a 17' and modified the scale by 18/17 when printing. That way there was no conversions to deal with. Then the forms spacing was then evenly spread apart to make it 18' long.

I helped him do the Vaclav hatch lips today. It's looking like a pretty nice kayak.

Shawn Baker also built one very similar. It's a very sporty kayak and fun to paddle. Check out the link to his page on the webring.

: Has anyone created an offset table for the "L" version? I

: up at 18"? Any and all assistance will be appreciated as I am a
