Two winters ago i buildt my first kayak,a strip buildt Kavat designed by Thomasson,and i have a hard time deciding what to build as my next projekt.At his web-site Nick Schade rates his designs in terms of ease of building from 1-5,rating Night Heron as 2(easier)and Expedition Single as 4(more difficult).What aspects of the design makes this difference?Is the difference really that big?How does these designs compare to Cape Ann Storm in terms of ease of building?The designer of Cape Ann suggests bead and cove-strips,while Schade suggests an easier method.Is this due to Cape Ann having a more difficult shape of hull,or will the easier method work equally well on this design?How does the Storm compare to Night Heron in terms of "fun to paddle"?Many questions,grateful for answers!Thanks!
