It would do quite well on the smallest of trolling motors. Hull speed for an 11.5 ft craft is only 5.3 mph, and my un-athletic self was able to...
Low drag for the stability level. Think about it this way. It's essentially a 20 inch wide ( therefore very skinny and unstable ) kayak split...
Wider would make good sense as a paddle board. Mines stable to stand on as is, but trying to paddle while standing would probably require more...
Oh, forgot to mention, if I made it much wider, there could be interference issues with the kayak paddle shaft striking the hull top edge. I...
I agree with you about widening and stabilty. I am surprised that as is it could handle 3 foot waves. My goal with stabilty was to make it easy...
It's two 10 inch hulls 10 inches apart. Stability seems good. I can easily stand in it. If I were a fishermen I could easily stand for casting...
It's 28 lbs, it's design weight with me and all gear in it is 255 lbs at which point it drafts 5 inches. It would take about 900 lbs to...
The construction works just like fiberglassing, and is combined with internal supports to spread the loads over a larger area. The central bridge...
It's ridden sitting on the tunnel with a foot in each hull. The width between hulls is about comfort and winds up with a total width of 32...
My second attempt at this build turned out much better than the first one. It much lighter at 28 lbs and turns much more easily. It displaces...
I finally got it in the water this past Sunday. Moved easily at 4 mph, ( gps), but didn't want to turn probably due to having no rocker at all. I...
Thank you again for responding. I do have a core reason for going to this more complex layout. : Very easy embarking and disembarking when...
Ok. Here's my poorly rendered 3 view plus a foam model of an earlier version. Sharp corners and edges will be rounded in real life. The model...
I will do that and thank you! I do intend to have bows like the wavewalk kayak to force the majority of the bow wave outwards. The spacing...
