   Don't know if this would help, but there are many plans "out there" for bookshelves shaped like boats -- it got to be a real fad.  Perhaps you could modify to create a coffee table instead.

   I saw one at the Wooden Boat School Dorm that was very well constructed.  I thought they might have a plan but I couldn't find anything on their site.  The above site has plans that you might be able to adapt.  You could alway just buy a set of boat plans and build a 1/2 or 1/4 scale.  The Wooden Boat Magazine Store has many high quality plans.

   Post a photo if you decide to build one.

   I've built a few stripper canoes that were worthy of being coffee tables when I was finished........  But, I just took them out & used them for camping, fishing, & hunting.   I've even been known to fill them up with field-dressed moose and drag them accross beaver dams.   ;-)
