Re: sectional kayaks
In Response To: Re: sectional kayaks (Joseph)
: Thank for the responses. What I had in mind was to constuct two cones
: (ends)and a cylinder (cockpit). Are there inherent problems with this? No
: scarfing required as I see it.
The biggest problem with this is that a kayak consists of a hull made with smooth curves. Building it in pieces interupts those curves at their ends. You'll have ugly joints and seams that will make changes in the handling characteristics of the boat.
Hope this helps
