She is 16 ft overal,and nearly that long a waterline, 20 inches at the widest point on the bottom, 22 inches at the 4 inch water line,
Matt designed her to max out to the rec class kayak racing ,long water line ,narrow,asymmetrical swede form ,she should be fast,I hope
I started doing some downriver races last year and this was the boat I wanted.

I used the butt joints because I wanted to see if this could be adapted to any of Matts plans,basicaly using the strips for plywood. also if I cover the bottom hull with graphite it will be covered anyway.Second ,I guess I am a little weird,I like folks to be able to see that it is wood ,all the knots and swirls and grain .
