Well I have the plans on the way for a 15' 32" sit on top kayak on the way.
The Wadefish is a self bailing kayak designed for ocean going fishing as well as flats fishing as it's easy to get in and out of. The Wadefish surfs pretty good which puts a plus in the beach launching column.
I was seriously contemplating putting a mirage drive in this boat, but have decided I would rather have a console instead and invest in a good paddle.
The bow is the highest part of the craft with the bow cover slanted to both starboard and port to route wave water off the sides rather than into the cockpit. The body of the kayak gets progressively lower to the water to the stern like a traditional ocean or surfing yak which helps keep wind steerage down.
This will be my 3rd JEM watercraft build.
I'll start by making patterns out of some quality plywood. Get the pattern just right and then I can zip the actual parts out with a router pronto.
