Hi again,
this community was a stron support when I was building my Pygmy Coho and Osprey13.

Now I'm dreaming to build a hughe open canoe in stitch&glue, but I can't get hold on plans.
My dream boat should be able to accomodate up to 10 (12) adult paddlers for day trips. Stability is an issue as I'll use the boat during team building sessions - so most of the paddlers will be novices. Some of the sessions coul dbe hold at moderately streaming rivers. Conseqently stability is an issue.
For longer trips also speed is a nice thing to have. We'll join the annual Vogalonga, a kayaking / rowing event in an arround Venice, Italy. Maybe we'll do a month long river trip through Europe (2000km in 8 weeks on Danube river).
For transportation and flexibility, I'd like to have a hull in 3 parts. Bow and stern form a smaller version (up to 6 persons)and with the added middle section I have all I need

Unfortunatelly I can't find plans for such a beast. Do you know ready plans or how to create some?

Which Software would be best to create shape, calculate stabiliy, get the details of the planks - and much more interesting: How to determin wall thickness (plywood + glass layup)

Best thanks for all your ideas
