Mick
She is looking good.
Ron

She's going to be a beauty, Mick!! I'm really anxious to see her on the water. Definitely has pretty lines.

Bruce

Thanks guys, I'm pretty anxious to get her done now too.

First coat of graphite enriched epoxy is on the bottom.





Will let this tack up for a couple of hours and put another one on. Will get the three coats on today.

That is one sexy looking beast!!!!

AWESOME! Reminds me of the movie "Hunt for Red October" very sleek

OK,

I took her for a lil walk early this morning in the cool. The boat is nowhere near finished and I had concerns about seating position. This has been the cause of numerous PMs, back channel to Matt and even after all this time of Matt proving me wrong, time after time, I still had some doubts. Sorry Matt.

The ideal seat position in this boat is exactly where Matt Described (again) and now, I can confidently go forth and finish her off.

I paddled her today with just a sit backer sitting o the bottom of the boat and without foot braces so a full review is premature. Having said that, this is a great kayak! It is faster than my laker and has better glide. Maneuverabilty is excellent as is tracking.

As I finish her, I intend to put her through a very good test but from my brief experience today, This boat is definately a winner and is superior in every way to my Laker. I wouuldn't hesitate to recommend this boat for somebody looking for a slightly more advanced build than Laker. She is a true delight to paddle.

Matt, I am thrilled with this boat, thank you for the opportunity of building the prototype.

Now all I gotta do is finishe her off and keep Robin out of it. If she tries this boat, it is a dead set, certainty that she will want one just like it.

Whew!

Mick had me wondering as well about that seating position!

Glad to hear she didn't flip ya. Well maybe not...

G'day Matt,

Thanks mate, I think Iove this boat. and can't wait to get her finished now.
