: Nick has free offsets for a S&G Guillemot on his site (link below). I've also
: been happy with the price and quality of Raka epoxy/cloth. I've got one of
: Nick's S&Gs about 80% done - I also used luaun and will probably end up
: with around $250-300 in it by the end (note that this can be spread out
: over the construction period to ease the budget pain).

I am currently working on a S&G Guillmot and a 18' Walrus WITH MY SONS. Well 1/2 hour into OUR projects, they lose interest and went on to play computer games. Guillmot is about stitched up. Walrus is almost done with the frame. I estimate it would be next year before both hit the water. In the mean time, I have an inflable to play with.
