: Hi folks, I'm new to the board here and I've been sifting through various
: posts regarding the construction of SOF kayaks. My questions is: are they
: really as easy to build as they seem to be? I am a crafter of
: primitive/traditional archery tackle, so I have a fair amount of
: experience with woodworking. I just this evening past ordered the books by
: Morris, and Cunningham. Is there enough clear information in those two
: books to enable me to build a quality boat first time out? I'm sure all
: the answers to these questions are buried in the archives here, but to
: save me hours of digging I thought it best to ask directly. Thanks in
: advance.

suspect from your post that your woodworking experience is more extensive than mine therefore would expect you to be even more qualified to build a SOF than I was.

Personally I haven't finished
