: Are you using AYC for the whole boat? That should make a very nice frame.

hi Bill;
thanks. although morris sugests ayc for the whole frame, i wanted to keep the weight as low as possible, so the frame is wrc but for the ribs. i will treat the frame with the same tung oil as i use on my wrc greenland paddles. should make a nice match.
my spring run is all ayc. the outside of the hull is glassed and it is gorgeous!
