: Hi all,
: I am looking for some feedback on this boat. I am looking at buying it for
: the family to paddle without getting a ca, canoe. (I can hardly say it!)
: ;-) How well did it go together, aesthetics, hours to build, and paddling
: characteristics would be appreciated.

: Thanks,
: Doug
2/3 way thru my triple. It actually has gone quite well so far. Did an Arctic Tern 14 last winter. Multichine hull is quite nice to work with, easier to glass than the hard chined Tern. It is big!! 20' end to end is alot of boat!! I have had a little lul in the action over the last month, but could be done in a couple months start to finish with consistent effort. Overall, a satisfying project so far!!
Good Luck!
Harold.
