I am getting ready to build the North Bay XL.
I bought the plans becuase I love the shape and lines of the boat.
But I plan to use it many types of water conditions.
So to bring down the weight a little and ad manuverability
I would like to shorten it from 18'7" to 16'7".
Does anyone know if there could be any adverse handling characteristics
from altering the boat this much.
Thankyou, Julie
