Hi all,
I've been following the forum here for quite a while, and now I've decided to stick a toe in the water. I want to build myself a canoe, primarily for flyfishing, so it needs to be quite stable. Whilst I am well skilled when it comes to working with timber, I know very little about boat design. I am looking to build something in the 14-16 ft range, but I would like it to be as stable as possible. I have come across a few plans (one in particular that I like), but I don't know how to work out which one is going to best suit my needs. Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers,
Chris
