In Response To: Skin-on-Frame: Yet another boat . . . . *Pic* (Dave Gentry)

RUTH has a passenger seat (I may add a backrest), but is not for two rowers. It is yet to be seen how she rows with a passenger. Got to be better than the 8' pram I had!
I decided on the beam by modeling it on a number of other, similar purposed boats. This one is a wee bit narrower, because I like narrow boats . . . .

Bill, PM me and I'll send you the offsets, etc.

I'm working on a rough building guide which I will make available, too.

Thanks again!
