Brend,
Thanks for your prompt reply and information. ?Yes the benefits of the larger boat is obvious which is why I initially chose it. ?And yes MA does offer a special permit for wider boats, but now as I think about it the shorter length would better fit my building space and I would only have to scarf 2 8' lengths of plywood rather than 3. ?But I may be able to order pre scarfed 20' ply. ?Also, regarding the PDF files, I have found a local CNC service that can cut the panels so I will obtain a quote to see if that would be better than cutting them out myself. ?If it is reasonable it should be worth the savings in build time.
I'm sorry, I misunderstood your statement regarding the other boats. ?Thanks for clearing that up.
Dank u wel,
David
