: Hi Tom,
: From the pix it looks more like a decked canoe than a double kayak, still
: interesting. Still at this point thinking of building a solo sonnet over
: the winter, we'll see.
Yes, the vertical stems and unsupported flat deck are canoe like, but in the
water, under load, it has about 1.5" rocker and 10+ degrees deadrise. It's
waterline shape is similar to the Sonnet 16.
As the pic below shows, the keel to stem transition creates a rounded
waterline entry, not vertical.
