Here's the reason I have not posted plug pic's recently. I've put more than a few hours in this project. It is a strip built 2 person kayak designed by Nick Schade. It took me 7 weeks to get my hands on 3, 19 and 20 foot long pieces of Genuine Mahogany from South America. This kayak is built from one of those pieces that started out rough at 3"x8"x20 feet. All strips were indexed and numbered as they were cut, so the kayak could be built with consecutive pieces. You can see the result in a repeating pattern on the finished boat. The accent pieces are also from only one board from Pennsylvania of nicely figured Tiger Maple. For the most part, only 3 tools were used to strip the hull and they are, a razor knife, block plane and a sanding block. I've got the better part of 350 hours in this project.
