: Buy the book and you will enjoy it.

: I now own 6 books on kayak and canoe building and have never felt bad about
: buying any one of them.

: I just got "The New Kayak Shop" and for stitch + glue I believe it
: is the best.

: For strip kayaks, Nick's book "The strip built Sea Kayak"and for
: strip canoes, Ted Moore's "Canoecraft".

: But any that I have seen were good books.
: just an opinion. -Chuck

I bought Nick's book and that's how i got (hooked) started. After building the Guillemot I decided to give a Stitch & Glue a try. I havn't decided what I like the best, building or paddeling.
