: Help... I am bitten with the Kayak building bug. I have spent an unreal
: amount of hours on the internet searching for information and methods for
: building wood kayaks. I have come to the conclution that my first project
: will be a stitch and glue. I have lots of power and hand tool experience
: and some furniture building knowledge and a little bit of exposure to
: fiberglass. My wife thinks I should buy the kit minus the glass and let a
: shop do it, but that will have to wait for another disscution. My question
: tonight is, has anyone had experiance with either Waters Dancing kits or
: Pygmy kits, I am torn between the two.
: Thanks,
: Steve

I would also recommend building by plans if you can get the boat you like. I have built two boats designed by Vaclav, his instructions and plans are ***** (5 stars)!
