: Hi Rick, If you can work from a set of rough offsets for forms, I could give
: you the numbers for the stations for our Cormorant. (Actually, I will
: probably add to our web site). You would have to draw these up and radius
: the corners to your liking, but it would be just like building any other
: stripper once you had the forms set up. We build this kayak in lengths
: from 15'1" to 18'2". We generally build the strip version at
: 17'1". Beam is 22 1/2".

: A few folks on this BBS are building S&G versions of this kayak. They might
: be able to give you their thoughts on the boat.

: Grant

My experience level is 2yr high school (furniture) + home projects. No boats yet, but the offsets should not be a problem with Nick's book at hand.

Thanks to all who have responded so far. I'm reviewing but undecided yet...
