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.


But he did not ask for a "4 passenger boat", he specifically said "up to
four in a pinch", and this boat can do that, and slide into the back of a
pickup truck too. But it's not a "nesting" boat...

No way, unless a life threatening situation would you put 4 normal size
people in a small 12' boat. What is the load capacity?
