Shawn, That sounds like a good idea. In fact, if he's monitoring any of this stuff, he's probably already got them drawn up and wrapped up. LOL Now, let me throw another question out there. Are either the Expedition Single or the Night Herron a good boat for a beginner? If the Great Auk is more stable and already boasts the dimentions to fit my ...... then would I be better off doing one of them instead? I like the looks of the two previous boats, but, there's not much sence in building one if my skills aren't up to it. Especially if he's going to go to the trouble of modifying it. Since I'm new at this, I haven't a clue just how much skill it takes to drive one of these. I ride a big bike, so, I have good balance if that's part of it. ???????

What other sites might I look at to see what else is available?

Time to go as it's time to feed this ugly face. A salad will do, so I can fit into one of those skinny boats in about 7 months. I need to get one finished by May 5th. as my Bible Study group is going on vacation to Morro Bay, California and I want it to be ready. Gotta blow their socks off. Two or three want to buy the Molded plastic ones or fiberglass, and if I do good, I may just get a couple more projects. Thanks for the tip. Rehd
