Oops! Sorry if I blundered - I was not at all trying to advertise. I am not affiliated with Walrus. I'll remove the link if that's a problem. No, I'm wondering if anyone knows of plans or a design - strip or s&g - for a boat of similar dimensions. As I said, the short boats I know of are usually either targeting light paddlers / children, or are pretty wide, targeting beginners or others seeking lots of initial stability. This specimen looks like it would be short and still have enjoyable performance (or so the mfr's copy claims). That's what I'm intrigued by.
