Kudzu Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 This is new design I am developing. I am working on the full size patterns now and will probably start building this one this fall. Sling Shot falls in the performance category along side Long Shot. It is hard chined boat and will be simpler to build than Long Shot and should be a little lighter since there is less wood compared to the multiple chines in Long Shot. Of course there are not free rides in Kayak designs so that means the Sling Shot is not going to have as much speed potential as Long Shot, but it should still be a faster ride. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stickbow Posted October 8, 2010 Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 I'm an old man (or my eyes are), so can't read your lines - what's her LOA and beam? Looks very nice, and is a bow/stern/cockpit style I really like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kudzu Posted October 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 Just finishing up the plans on this one. Everything is now nailed down. it's 18.5' long with a 17' 5" water line and 23" wide OA and 19.5" at the waterline. Stability is a little lower but the speed potential is good if you have the motor to power it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kudzu Posted October 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2010 It is finalized and the plans are done. I am not listing it in the store just yet. I want build it and paddle it first. But I think this will be a nice boat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
