In Response To: Re: Guillemot? (Mike Hanks)

I'd never though about converting the Guillemot design to skin-on-frame. It would undoubtably be a beautiful boat and one that I would have a hard time resisting building---

But I'd have serious reservations about it's ability to take the high point impact loads that collisions with river rocks produce. Is there anyone out there with skin-on-frame experience who could comment on this?
