Regular glass. No need for structural glass in Kayak construction.

One of the most sought after traits that experienced builders want from their glass is wet-out. Clear wetout with no air entrapment. People on this board never complain that their glass failed or is too weak. But the archives are loaded with horrible wet-out problems and air entrapment problems.
