Boat Building Forum

Find advice on all aspects of building your own kayak, canoe or any lightweight boats

I design, build and sell small boats and boat kits and plans. I specialize mostly in non-traditional skin-on-frame, including kayaks and canoes, rowboats and sailboats.
But, mostly, I'm an avid paddler, rower and sailor. I live on the Chesapeake Bay, in the Northern Neck of Virginia.

This is a kind of blurred image of me, paddling my old Yost Sea Rover, in the San Juan Islands, WA
