: Some SOF plans I recently came across. Length-3 arm widths, beam-half an arm
: width. Improvise from there.
: Geo. C.
I consider such to be guidlines mores than plans. Guess I was aiming at plans being more set in stone. Like stating that the beam should be 23.5" instead of a cubit or or hip width plus 2 fists. Each person will have a slighty different shaped and dimensioned boat with SOF's. Its this dynamic that makes SOF's so exciting to build and so easy to change. Think the boat should be narrower, build it that way and wrap it in a skin. Try that with other building systems. It would be a true challenge.
But if I'm building strip. I want plans with exacting forms.
