Wow! Lower ...your boat is looking great! You're working on your console so it looks like you'll be done soon. Got a motor for it yet? I have some wheels for the strongback ready to go. Lots of fairing and sanding I'll do outside on nice days.
This project is for me and my 26 year old son to build together. My plans are to finish building it within the year but probably not in time for this season. The motor and trailer will cost more than the hull.(I'm looking for a deal on a slightly used 40-50 HP motor)
Bloo.. I'll still be fishing the surf alot even after the boat is done. Just might not be kayaking as much! See you out there  |

Thanks! It's getting there. I still have to finish the gunwales and then begin fairing the inside. The finish work (fairing, etc) can really eat up some time! You'll see what I mean soon enough! No motor yet, I'm looking. I'll be doing similair to you, a 40 or 50. Keep up the good work and throw some pics up every once in awhile, their great to see. |

Cool, but I thought you are supposed to splice the panels to length first, then stitch them???

You are correct...and observant! But it was too cold to do any epoxy/fiberglass this weekend. Just setting things up and dry fitting pieces. Waiting for warmer temps to join my side panels to length.
My interior layout will be similar to this one in the picture
