Re: [bolger] hull construction patent US4489668 mock up
I have no need for a canoe or kayak because my current project is a rowboat. It seems like the hull form is so easy to make I wonder why it hasn't become popular?

The boat looks quite good. The illusion of scale in front of the
fence is pretty amusing. Going any further?

3 shots of a 24" mock up with .010 styrene. It works and it's very easy to do, IMO, worth investigating. 010 is too thin, at least .020, the sheets are 6x12 inches giving an 1/8 scale model.
