A design of my own!

Well, I've tried my best to come up with a boat that I thought would incorporate all the things I'm looking for in a design, and would like to submit what I have so far here for a sort of peer review, if you will (the question of "what boat should I build!?!?!" was about to drive me nuts. Thanks go to Ross Leidy, Joe Greenley, and others for their excellent input in that department, though). I decided to design my own because I wanted the satisfaction of building and paddling a boat that was entirely my own. Also, because I'm unable to satisfy my building and paddling urges at the moment, I found that contemplating my own design at least helped quell them a bit. Any criticisms or input anyone is willing to give are very welcome (how often do you get an opportunity to flame like that!!).

Thanks, Nick

Nick's design
