In Response To: S&G: Which kayak to build? (Bobby Asher)

My son and I built a Tern after building Guillemot 17 standard stripper, He loves the AT and I the G17,apples oranges.Both kayaks are great in the open ocean. The statement about the direction are bit misleading, they are spot one but you must not speed read through some spots. They easy to read, concise but as in all boat builds, critical times you must not assume things. The only thing we changed on the AT, we use a mini cell seat not the inflating pad that came with it. If you can pay, the Redfish mini cell seat Joe sells is a thing of wonder.
