Find advice on all aspects of building your own kayak, canoe or any lightweight boats

The BBS is NOT for trashing the competition

This BBS is meant as an open forum for discussing techniques for building kayaks. I welcome anyone who has comments regarding techniques to post their opinions regarding those techniques.

Representatives on any kit manufacturer or kayak designer are welcome to express their opinion regarding techniques on my Bulletin Board. They are not welcome to criticize the competition.

Customers are welcome to say whatever they want. If one of my customers does not like my designs or techniques, I will not stop them from stating their opinion. However I reserve the right to defend myself and my boats. In turn I will not object to other commercial interests from defending their products with factual statements.

I request people keep their posts to what they know, or asking for opinions on those subjects that they do not. If you have an opinion about something, but you don't have facts to back it up, please keep quiet.

I request that people please read the guidelines.
