: Recently I completed a kayak that is loosely based on a shortened Spring Run
: model. Took it out this weekend for the first time and just posted some
: pics that some of you might enjoy.

The model looks great, John. I built a 1/4 scale model of a kayak I designed with Kayak Foundry (Ross Leidy) and I installed bulkheads and footpegs. I glassed mine inside and out. I even made a 1/4 scale paddle with drip rings. Took 40 hours to build and makes a great conversation piece.

Thanks for sharing with us.
