Steadily moving forward on this. Here is a photo of the 8' model. It came out fair with some minor tweeking.

Another view.

And here is a youtube link to a full size canoe in action. Note the tight cornering.

The puller, David, seen at the end of the video paddled my Mystery with a single blade and hit a max speed of 9.1 mph in it. Lots of fun stuff lately.

Best,
