: Hi, im about to start a guillemot double and i am thinking about taking two
: inches out of the middle of the boat to make a little faster and make it
: look a little sleeker i figure i would leave the last four forms on either
: end alone as the boat tapers drastically about there i was wondering if
: anyone has tried this or has any thoughts on why it would or wouldnt work

: thanks

Why dont you build the Fast Double??!! Looks like a fast nice kayak

If you mess with the beam It is easy that you will end upp with a much less stable kayak and less load carying kayak
