: I am building a OneOcean Storm LT. Confusing, but
: information on changing a design from no stem to internal stem would be
: helpful. Thanks!

I've built a Cape Ann Storm, finishing a Cirrus, and have the plans for a Storm SLT for next winter. I've been pretty impressed with Vaclav's designs and attention to the building process. SO, why are you doing an internal stem? I understand why one would do one on a stripper canoe, since it's visible. But on a One Ocean design? Just curious, since I'd be more inclined to do a drop dead gorgeous outer laminated stem.
