gooday all
After reading a lot of the entries on this website I bit the bullet and ordered plans for Wadefish.I want to build a sot kayak for fishing and general paddling around.
I have some experience in stitch and glue having built two,"his and her"Toto's and an electric powered tug boat. The Toto's are excellent boats but being open can be a bit wet, no problem in summer but a bit of a pain in winter.
However while waiting for my plans to arrive I got sucked into the depths of this site and started to have second thoughts about my choice,a good example of more haste less speed.
Doubts nagged at me so I bit the bullet again and ordered plans for Sabalo as well. All I can say at the moment is when the plans arrive I will study them well and make a decision I could well end up with two more boats . Looking forward to starting and Im sure I will have lots of questions as I go.

Paul,

You have begun a descent down a slippery slope into oblivion. Wooden boats are like potato chips - one isn't enough.
