Who needs a kayak? Caulk those joints and throw that thing in the water, and you'll be good to go!

Radio Stations?

Paul,
I'm saying this with a smile on my face :D How many channels are you getting with all of those antennas? :D

Hairy Mick? :D

I'm a dye hard fisherman and I'm sure my yaks, will some day, be getting as many channels as you guys. :D

Good Looking Job!

Jeff

Goty a bit more done at last ........Glued in all the decks

Hull looks a bit crusty.. but I didn't want to cleanup outside till last so epoxy would give the ply some protection

If with the "barnacles" growing on it, you can see it's a very true and square hull. Nice work!

I am considering hacking halfway down panel A and cockpit side in cockpit region to insert a dowel to form a lifting handle in apex of A and cockpit intersection if you know what I mean :?
this will happen above A.B chine intersection but will leave a cutout in the cockpit sheer of maybe 2-2 1/2" thinkig maybe 3/4 dowel in apex for handle
My gut feeling is there will be enough freeboard to achieve this.........................any thoughts?
Cheers........ little old wine drinker me

you mean like installing a bow eye and then install rope with t-handle for lifting?
