A friend of mine has a replica of this one. I don't
know how faithfully he followed the plans, but it
trims a little low in the back. But that might be due
to more heavy Euro weight paddlers 180 lbs. There are
plans for a double Aleut baidarka in Qajaq, but the
one replica I have seen of that definitely did not
trim well.
George Dyson sells plans for aluminum frame boats.
These trim well.
I know that Superior kayaks builds wood frame doubles
in their classes. No plans available though. You have
to take the class.
