Sanding and refinising is the least rewording activities in boat building. Before you are done you will have another $100 in epoxy, glass, paint, varnish and consumables. I wounldn't consider the project unless it was a real deal, say $300 max.

Buy a kit or plans for a kayak of your choice. The effort will be the same and the results are sure to be better. Stay in touch this BB will get you through the project.
