: Now that I've built a S&G boat for my 10 year old son, a Spring Run
: stripper for me and about to complete a 2nd Spring Run with a
: custom sized cockpit, I have the bug to build a SOF boat as a
: winter project...

: I am a complete newbie at a SOF so would welcome any advice that
: might help me find an appropriate design as well as information
: on building. I've read all I can find so have a good idea what
: the build process involves but bending ribs to achieve a desired
: hull shape is something I have not yet found a source for.
: Looking for some plans.....

: Thanks in advance.....

Can I recommend Christopher Cunningham's well regarded and popular Building the Greenland Kayak. This book takes you through the process of scaling the design to fit your size. Even if you get a design from elsewhere, the building advice in this book will serve you well.

You can look at a good deal of the book here: http://books.google.com/books?id=5-cazMBSQWcC&printsec=frontcover#v=onepage&q&f=false
