: Hi, Mike
: Sure look like fun boats! Very pretty, too! What are they?

: Very best! Rick.........
The top one is my wife's Guillemot, and the bottom is my Great Auk. Thanks to Nick Shade, the owner of this website - I think - and the author of the book "The Strip-Built Sea Kayak" who has made building these boats both enjoyable and possible. His book is very clear, concise, and accurate. His training as an engineer really shows in the book's examples and diagrams. The boats are awesome. I can't wait to get them finished.
