Has anyone made the hunting float in Cunninghams book? I made one last night to his scale and mine came out the size of a small turkey.I am curious, what size seal was used for this type of float? It seems that they would have to provide more bouyancy/drag than one this size is capable of delivering. The ones pictured in his book, the ones on the backs of the kayaks that are being used, look much larger.The shape looks great, just like a seal with no appendages,just a little....small.
Like I said, I made it to scale and only used a 1/4" seam and it just looks like a little burnt up turkey back there on the rear deck. I used Shawns black nylon. That is the reason it looks like my wifes Thanksgiving turkey .
Any thoughts on this one? Seems that I read a while back there was some discrepency in one of the measurements from another project in his book
Thanks, Arko
