    The only problem I see with this design would be the draft. I checked bateau.com and looked at all there designs and all I came up with was modifying one of the pangas. But then Im stuck in a dilemma, how will the boat perform? Will my changes to the plans totally throw it off?

    By the way, Im willing to pay someone to design this for me. Anybody know someone or can tell me where to start looking?
