Skene Kayak Principal Dimensions:
LOA = 17'-0" = 5182 mm
BOA = 19.25" = 489
Flare = 3/4" = 19
Bow .5A = 8.25 Deg (bow angle from centerline)
Stern .5A = 8.00 Deg (stern angle from centerline)
Depth = 9 1/2" = 241 (at front of coaming)
Bow height = 15" = 381
Stern height = 13.5" = 343
Rocker = 5/8" = 16
Deadrise = 1.5" = 38
Side height = 5" = 127 (shear to chine, amidships)
Chine width = 17.75" = 451
Stem angle = 30 Deg
Sternpost angle = 35 Deg
Flare angle = 8.5 Deg
Dead rise angle = 9.5 Deg
Dist to coaming = 8'- 4 5/8" = 2556 (from bow to front)
Dist to coaming = 9'- 9 1/4" = 2979 (from bow to rear)
Coaming width = 16 5/8" = 423
Maximum widths appears to be at roughly .54 x LOA = 9'-3" (2820mm)
Seating position is roughly at 9'-4" (2855mm)
In some eyes the above may seem to be incomplete, but these are the
dimensions I derived and later modified to build my kayaks.
