Scott,

Sorry to make you re-state your health issues, I remember your issue.
I hope again that is all behind you.

I reviewed the Shrike and find I still have the same opinion.
Actually I have a set of 30+ yo Cross 18 plans and find that more pleasing than either the Shrike or the W-17 which I have settled on so far.
I still really want a design with smooth lines that would require strip planking (or something like that).

I wouldn't want to waste my "skills" in making kayaks :)

Thanks for the offer, but I'm going to decline.
I do wish I still had previous computer drafting skills, perhaps I could design my own. But I'm not sure I want to put all the build effort into something drawn by an "amateur".

Good luck again. Like you my wife probably will not join me in any sailing adventure. I killed that off long ago.
