Larry, Stretching and widening an already made boat is not worth the trouble. Stretching is simpler as you could scarf and reinforce everything but to widen it is another matter. You would have to split it down the middle. Just not feasible. I agree with Chris Theroux....start from scratch and build the boat to your needs. Building the boat is actually one of the simpler task of building a KR.

HELP I need to know if a standard KR Boat can be stretched and widened to become a KR2S. The boat is in good shape and has retractable gear which will be removed for tri-gear. I am really wanting to put a corvair engine on this bird. I am just wondering if it would be better to start from scratch or can I have a head start by getting this boat to work.
