    I saw a Jon boat with Wood grain Tape or something on the sides.
    It was Yellow with Wood Grain trim.
    Really good looking little thing.

    BTW: You can have a 12' boat and still reach both ends, if you put the Rolling Rowing seat in the middle and a 40" rail set.
    Just scoot back and forth to reach what you'd formerly have to get up and go get.

    1: There have been others built before. 2: Buy the plans and the designer is there (or should be) to support you and answer questions. 3: the designer has a track record and is known to be a good designer. 4: The name is Devlin, Sam... Don't know how he would take to being called Devil... :D
