Building a Guillemot Kayak |
Memorial Day-2002-Put the boat in the water and paddled 4-5 miles. Wonderful speed and stability. Now I have to finish the boat by putting on the varnish. Just couldn't wait. Started in October with just Nick's book and now it floats! |
Hello, my name is Robert Kimball. Last April my wife Monika and I bought kayaks. We were surprised at just how much fun we had paddling the various lakes in Michigan. Then I purchased Nick Schade's book, "The Strip-built Sea Kayak", and I got excited about building my own kayak. On these few pages, I will try to chronicle my progress. Please take a moment and sign my guest book. |
I highly recommend Nick Schade's book if you're planning to build a sea kayak. You can reach his web site by clicking here: Guillemot-kayaks.c |
