: John, Your kayak looks like something I'd be interested in building. Do you
: have plans, lofting information and specifications (ie. weight capacity
: etc.)? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Dan

Hi Dan,

I don't have but I will take the sections I still have and mark the sizes on them and post a photo. This will give you an idea of the curves. I used the free BearBack kayak program in 1999. If it's still available and usable in the same way, I don't know. But it was simple. Plug in the sizes and select STRAIT, MEDIUM CURVES or FULL CURVES, and the amount of rocker curve in the hull. I used the FULL CURVES for looks and it also gives move roominess and volume. The Bow and Stern were pretty much up to you to develop. Then using your home computer printer you could print out all the form sections. One other thing. It didn't paddle worth a darn. but I added the skeg in the picture and now it's perfect. But If I were doing it again I would add less rocker in the back and that might eliminate the skeg. One of the guys on the board has developed a kayak program you might check out.
