: I'm building a Guillemot for my wife. I'm using the plan for the cockpit that

: that fits? I'm probably going to start with a cheap, nylon skirt (unless
: someone can talk me out of it) because money is tight, and I don't think
: my wife will be learning to roll anytime soon.
I got a freebe neo for the G17 we built then we built a Artic Tern and got in a rush a bought a $40.00 nylon at REI that leaks from the water coming off the Greenland paddle. We did not try to fix it just bought a neo from the Kayak store,gone. Better nylons will work but wear out, neo can last a long time.
