Mark,

You might want to check out the West River 162 or 164 by CLC. They are about the length and width you mention. They are both multi-chined, and one is higher volume than the other. Pygmy also has a couple of boats in the same length and width category, but I'm not sure they are available as plans - might be available only as a kit.

Good Luck,

Ken
