Hello Eric and welcome to mayhem.
I, and many others , have built the Imara. It is a great looking craft and performs Ok on the water. There are several problems with the scaling of the drawings and accuracy of the cabin location to the length of the hull.
I would advise reading through other peoples blogs to get all the information on this and you will end up with a beautiful boat.
Please do a picture blog on here as it would be of interest to me and the other members. Of all the boats I've built, this one is the best looker.
cheers
