In Response To: strip built fishing boat (Chris Luneski)

I built the Ted Moore's design, Bob's 15' Special, it makes a good fishing platform. I added an extra coat of epoxy to the bottom with graphite and also a full length ash keel, jumped the weight up to 64 lbs. It handles real good and paddles solo very well. You can also spread out the forms a bit and make it 16'
