: From the bow and from the peaked deck fore and aft of the cockpit
: it looks like an Endeavour, which the Great Auk does not have.

My guess is for a guillemot design over a bear mountain. Reasons are... He built from a book and guillemot is the only one to use the internal strong back in the book. Bear mountain uses the other kind (forget what it is called). Based on this with the peaked deck I would say great auk also. What is the width of the boat at the beam? And length overall. That could help you narrow further.
The great auk is 17' with a 24" beam and the endeavor is 17' with a 23.5" beam. Close in the beam but a half inch is still a lot.
