: In all honesty, I have no idea what design it is?
: I've never even really been in a kayak.. One day I ran across the
: Kfoundry software and an associated file out on the interwebs.
: Being a CAD monkey by trade, I couldn't help but download it and
: spent a long while pushing/pulling things around and looking at
: pictures of wooden kayaks. When my wife was out of town one
: weekend, figured hey what the heck, I need a project... Plotted
: out the stations and got to it (halfway thinking I'd never
: actually get this far). She looked at me like I was a nut when
: she came home and I told her what I was up to.. Completely
: addicted now! This will not be the last one.

: My biggest hope's are that she floats, goes somewhat straight, and
: that I like kayaking..
: Which I should.. Grew up on the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore
: in the UP of Michigan. Canoeing is something I've always really
: enjoyed... just never tried a kayak. And there's nothing like a
: few days in the Boundary Waters of MN to take the edge off...

If you can afford it, you may want to consider sending a contribution to the KayakFoundry author. It is a great program, and we should support the folks that make it avaliable.
