That kayak is not stitch and glue.
It is built in the plywood on frame method.

Basically you cut pieces of ply the shape of the hull
attatch them to a keel, add longtitudal stringers at the chines and sheer then cover with marine grade plywood.

I have also built a stich and glue kayak from Pygmy Boats.
Much easier to build and lighter.

If I can locate the pictures of the build I will start a new thread.
Didn't mean to hijack this one.

G2H: yes I love my new vs 200. Whent out a few days ago to try a few cast and to get used to the bailess. Only took about half hour to get the hang of it. Even though the wind was @ 25 mph

Now bring on the stripers and blues!
