: Julie you make a few convincing statements. I was hoping for a boat either
: could paddle. Because there are times while on a trip she wants to go and
: I can't and vice versa. Thus I could just travel with one kayak, but
: perhaps this is as unrealistic as her using my boots. So with that as a
: given I will make two different boats. My version of Nicks s+g is um..
: well ugly. Not the design mind you, just my building of it. It was my
: first attempt and was built under trying circumstances. I will buy a kit
: for my next boat. So what boat do you all think would be suitable for her
: needs and what are the opinions for a s+g kit for what I need. thanks

You might look at the CLC West River 162 and 164, the 162 for her and the 164 for yourself. You can build both from the same set of plans, although they will want a royalty payment for the second boat or you can get the kits. This way, what you learn on the first boat, you can apply to the second. Of course, she gets the second(better) one{g} .
