: Following a dated thread but here is my experiences.

: I have just finished a CLC Patuxent 17.5. I have never
: built a boat and have never done any major glass work.

: I was interested in how much the final boat weighed.

: The boat is fully rigged with a Feathercraft rudder.

: It came in at 39#, weighed on a certified scale.

Jim, I would like to get your E-Mail Address. I want to attempt a kayak and never have done such before. I have access to all the free mahagony I want and was going to make my strips out of it. I have private questions though? hawk@global.california.com
