: I think that was me who mentioned how tender the Sea Otter is.
: Regardless, building another boat is always a good plan!

Dave... What would you do to improve it? Instead of building another similar boat at some point in time I wonder if I could simply modify it by adding spacers to the chines or adding material to the chines to modify the shape. What are your thoughts?

As far Floyd's boat, it looks nice and that seam is very strait. My seams are so crooked I consider them a replica of what animal skins would look like.
