Looks great Scott. You were smart to do the recess. I didn't make one with my Auk and later regretted it. I've since remedied that by building one a few weeks ago. It sure is easier on the thumbs when using the Greenland paddle. I look forward to seeing the pics after glassing.

Talk about convenience. Glue a strip...take one step and you can sit down at the dining room table for a snack. What a great idea, why relegate yourself to a basement. He,he,he.
