This boat is the best canoe-to-boat build I've seen. He did a hellacious job. I swear the original build thread was on here somewhere, but I only can find the threads that Snooker posted after he bought it. I am probably thinking of another canoe-to-boat project

It isn't a terribly difficult project. Obviously, the one that is linked started as a flatback canoe and ended up a bit higher class than a quick and dirty duckboat build needs to be, but you can infer how the builder worked though the build as you look through the pics. The process for a changing a double ender to a flat back will require a bit more thought, but it will follow the same general concepts. You'll probably lose 10-12" of length.
