I am not sure that I have seen anything like that but I will look through my stuff. For 4 people "in a pinch" I say you need at least a 12 foot skiff, but if I were you I might want a scow instead, more room up front and it might be easier to build. If you decide to modify an existing plan, that might be the best way. Do you want "nesting" as a novelty, or do you need it for transport, other cause I have a 12 foot skiff that fits in the back of a pickup truck, and would hold 4 "in a pinch"... Unless that 12' is super wide, is not a 4 passenger boat. My 14' lightweight aluminum Valco was a 3 person boat. The 12' was shorter by 2' in the widest portion. So lots less carrying capacity. Maybe 4 little people. |

You were looking at a larger stitch and glue boat. That is a 23' stitch and glue boat. Look up Tolman Skiffs for plans. I did but I am looking for a nested one. |

Do you have the skills to modify an existing plan, or do you need the plans to be complete, start to finish? I could probably take a short one and add a bit in the middle maybe but it may be not that simple. |

I am in Australia, was hoping to bung it in a box trailer. I might in the end go the other way and get a bigger one on a trailer,but that would mean having three trailers to register each year. |

I was thinking of buying a 'sit on' kayak to play with at the beach. If I do, I'll build a cradle to support the kayak on the utility trailer. You might be able to design/build something similar. |

I do have this which I built to carry long stuff on, 3feet wide 19.5 feet from ball to rear 1 foot high sides, but it is not built to go into water unless I fiddled a bit, so would have to lift boat on and off which starts to get heavy over 12 feet if it is not two piece. Would work for long canoe. http://tinypic.com/r/okqvma/8 |

" Just put the kayak on a rack on the car "
Don't own a car....and I'm not fussy about carrying a kayak on the roof of my truck. |
