You think we have it tough building a boat. Read this article. Excellent. You won't be able to stop reading. This guy is a master builder.

I would like to see a boat along the lines of the V-12 only lengthened to 16ft. Keep the beam the same. Must row easily but be able to take a SMALL outboard. (3.5 to 6 hp.) Keep a center seat for the single rower but add a rear and forward seat also. A nice riding, slow, seaworthy little boat for fishing quiet bays... My $0.02 worth.

That boat exist:
