: Thanks tom. I was thinking that an extra inch freeboard may come in handy
: too. (big feet).
: I will probably build it in Cedar strip.

The Dyson should make a nice stripper. For my Dyson "double" stripper,
I transferred the "offset" points from the Dyson drawings to poster board,
pinned each stringer offset point, wrapped a nylon R/C pushrod around the
curve, and traced a new line. This created a rounded shape vs the original
multi-chine shape.

The Nikumi and the lower displacement Nikumi 19 baidarka's can also be strip
built. The "woodstrip" offsets reflect a rounded shape with 12" station
spacing.
