Skin-on-Frame: Retrieval / Recovery Kayak

Hey all,

I've been searching around for some information on building a retrieval/recovery kayak around 9-10ft. I have Chris Cunningham's book (and Morris's book on order from the library) and was wondering if the retrieval kayaks are built using the same measurements to my body that his book outlines for a 17-18 footer.

Has anyone else built one of these that could point me in the right direction? Or does anyone know of any good websites or threads out there that go into detail on the construction of one of these?

Thanks!
-Matt S.
