Fish Ausable River boat

Hello Bearman.

did you ever find plans for an Ausable River Boat? I'm also interested in building one. I may make my own plans by copying a guide's boat in Grayling but if you have a source for plans I'd be interested in seeing or buying them. If not, let me know and when I make my own plans I'll make a copy for you also.
