: Al, that is just great, I got started on this s&g kick because I wanted a
: boat wood boat kind of like my Express. Haven't found it but I made a long
: skinny kayak that's in the right direction, at least for what's possible
: with four panels. I'm afraid the Broze brothers have made all the new
: models they're going to but I think the niche they could still fill is the
: medium/lower volume equivalent of the MAX. Similar waterline length and
: sharp entry as the MAX but much less windage, narrower waterline, roughly
: the same shape but with volume between the the Elan and Express. sigh,
: that would be the the boat.

Why not use the same hull shape and just lower the deck height. That would be easy to do, if you already had the forms.
