: The true dimensions per plan and Harvey Goldens book "Kayaks of
: Greenland" are; 18' 9" long with a 16-3/4" beam. The
: cockpit opening is 14-3/4W x 19-5/8"L. The inside hull to deck height
: is 7-1/8" at the masik and 5-5/8" at the isserfik (aft cockpit).
: The cockpit on the original boat is smaller then mine, otherwise I figure
: I'm +/- 1/8".

Kent, you definitely get the "Anorexic Boat of the Year" award. Wow... I thought the Black Pearls I've built this year were tight. For comparison your boat is 3" longer but 3" NARROWER (?!), the front deck is almost 2" lower. The only close dimension is the aft deck at 5-1/2". The standard cockpit opening is 22"x15". Watch out Paris and Nicole...
