: I've been using the bearboat program for kayaks and canoes. I have the paper
: sections of my first kayak on the particle board to be cut out today. The
: program is real easy to learn and has built in parameters that allow
: novices like me to design something other than a doughnut. The download
: can be found at the Mariner Kayaks page.

Thanks for the BEARBOAT Kayak Design free download information. I spent a couple of days figuring out how it works by trial and error and now have my kayak disigned and ready to print out my sections. It doesn't look like it prints out the bow and stern stems but that shouldn't be hard to draw by hand.
