: Other books to consider would be : "Building Sweet Dream : An Ultralight
: Solo Canoe for Single & Double Paddle"
: by Marc Pettingill I believe the biggest boat he has plans for can hold two
: people. (Check Amazon for info on availability of this)

I just happened to have this book sitting right next to my PC when I read this post. Page 20 indicates that the maximum load for his largest design (14') is 300 pounds. Nice looking boats, but not for any two people in my rather generously built family.
