Thank you.
It's in the short list.
I want it as light as possible
but steady enough to fish from.
Any fabric on frame options?
It may be sacrilege to say this on a boat building group but a twelve
foot aluminum is hard to beat. I live in what is called cortege
country. Seems like there's one of these little fishing boats tied up
to 90% of the docks around here.
Some of them are older than the trees that produced the wood you will
use and may well be around long after your wooden boat has returned to
the forest.
A used twelve footer in decent condition around here may sell for less
than the cost of the wood to build a boat that size.
