: older designs no longer available,but is this what the CLC plans look
: like. If so how is the deck drawn out. Am I missing something? Just
: wondering before I purchase a set.

FWIW, the kayaks made from Shearwater kayaks plans have multipiece decks that are drawn up as do Pygmy boats. Let it be known that I have worked on 2 CLC boats and 1 Shearwater kayak also. The fact that CLC doesn't have the deck drawn causes no worries for me.

What do you think you want the drawing of it?
