That's what I was wondering... However there's nothing to stop you combining the two. User the UJ-style straight side panels with a two-piece stem. Thus keeping the rocker but not needing to cut the UJ stempiece as per the plans. I was thinking of buying the UJ kits for the first couple of...

OK... found it! Here's the link to some free plans: http://www.lsuagcenter.com/en/our_offic ... irogue.htm I think the stems are exactly what you were describing. Interesting plans but I think by in-curving the bottom edge of the side boards it would reduce/remove the rocker that...

Can't find the link (possibly on my work laptop and I can't be doing with booting it up at 10 o'clock on a Sunday night) but there are some free plans showing just that on the web somewhere. One truncated triangular prism joins the two side boards and then a smaller triangular-section block...

Of the boat not personally of course although it would save on seating :lol: I have nearly cleared enough space to get a pirogue into our garage and I'm trying to get my head around all the techniques before getting into it. was wondering how you get the glass mat smooth over the bow...

Thanks everyone. Nearly ready to start work and start my addiction to sawdust and epoxy!

Morning All, I'm stuck at the airport. I am due to work 7pm to 7am both Sat and Sun nights in Scotland so not exactly a pleasure trip. The only plus point is my employer is paying for Buisiness Class (I am a strictly cattle-class traveller myself) and there is free Internet access (and free...
