: Yup.

: I built a pseudo-replica of an LC-148 East Greenland kayak a few
: years ago for a customer. It had a hull with a
: traditionally-framed SOF deck. It even had bulkheads and
: hatches. Quick to build and very light (28 lbs).

Did you glue along with stapling to hold the fabric on along the sheer...I'd be afraid of it coming loose and put a rub rail over the seam...
