Another hint and a question:

There is a photo of the first commodore of the ACA at:
 http://marinell.server101.com/Kayak-HIstory/Commodore.htm

Has anyone seen plans for a canoe/kayak like the Psyche (link below)?  Who
would be able to build such a boat?  How much would it cost?  Would  a
lap-strake sailing canoe be much heavier and slower than a 14' modern wooden
kayak?

Dream on, Marinell.

I'm going kayaking this weekend just north of Lake Okeechobee near where
this Commodore got lost and abandoned his boat.  That's what started this
thread today, although my friends have heard it for years.
