Doug, Is that the Forager design or something before it (I hope I don't have designers mixed up)? Regardless, I'd like to see some photos. I may have seen some black and white photos of it in an issue of Sea Kayaker magazine.

The Valley rear oval and front round hatches are in as new condition; the ocean cockpit is recessed its full perimeter - nothing like the vast majority of home-made or kit kayaks out there, looking almost like a high-end factory boat. The recessed fitting are bombproof with stainless steel pins. I'll be on the water tomorrow - been one year plus a day since my heart surgery; almost forgot what kayaking might be like, so looking forward to paddling again. Other than my Nordkapp, this is probably one of the few boats around here I'd consider well-built enough for me to take out, compared to most of the oil-canning crude out there.
