Dugout is a 14.3 foot (4.4m) Multichined Vee bottom dugout shaped canoe that is built out of 1/4 inch ply. Maximum beam is 39.8 inches. The bottom has a very mild Vee, for good initial stability and decent waterflow characteristics. Capacity is 2 people plus camping gear or up to about 500 lbs. Construction is of Stitch and Glue and should weight in the neighborhood of 45lbs or so, depending on ply and weight of cloth used.
