In Response To: Re: S&G: Deck the halls with... errr, oak? (Mike Hanks)

: If you are afraid of the cost, don't be, I was able to build a 17' x
: 22" kayak of my own design, including glassing of all surfaces inside
: and out, for $150.

Mike:
I would be interested to learn more as to how you accomplished it. I'm getting almost $200 per boat as a bare minimum, just for okume plywood + RAKA epoxy and cloth. This doesn't cover glass tape, or anything else for that matter.

Cheers,
Kurt
