I took the Little Auk sizes (I should have gotten permission from Nick, but didn't know any better)and using the free BearBoat kayak design program, I make the boat you see in the picture. It is quite abit rounded with a high deck which allows it to hold a lot of gear. All of the gear you see in the picture was crammed into this little 11'6" boat on my 10 day BWCA trip. I built in two large side partitions that are water tight for water sensitive items and they also serve as flotation. The tracking was bad but that will be fixed with a skeg. I did have too much gear and had to paddle with my legs on the deck.
