There's a set of boat plans out there that I saw once. I believe it was for something like a pirogue with a peddal drive. The peddal drive powered a shark-tail-like fin that hung off the back of the boat.

Anyone know where those plans are? I can't find them. They are on the net somewhere.

Hello JEM,
 
The Fin Boat was created by boatbuilder/designer Harry Bryan of Bryan Boatbuilding in New Brunswick Canada. Believe the boat’s design name is “Thistle”. Check out Harry’s other efforts both motor and human powered. His “Fiddlehead 14” looks most interesting…

There's another neat solution at http://www.tailboats.com/ although I'm not sure if they are in production yet.
