I saw that yesterday after I got the PMM newsletter about the auction... and was wondering what design the hull was. I can just make out now that it's the LFH dory construction dp canoe hull. Thanks, Ben!

As it turns out the oarmaster fits the cockpit like it was designed for it. Make a back rest, seat, foot braces and a paddle and you'd have a fine dual purpose boat.
