: Hi all,

: I've been thinking about building myself a surf kayak. I like the looks of
: Nick's Matunuck, but at 197 pounds, I'm at the top end of the paddler
: weight range. I'm also a bit heavy for the swallow-tailed Surfyak at
: surfyak.com. I know there have been some posts about surf kayaks, but my
: searches haven't found them.

: I am thinking S&G for this one, but a stripper would be fine. Any
: suggestions?

: 5'10" - 197 lbs. of pure muscle (yeah right) - size 11.5 shoe

: Thanks,

: Pedro Almeida

I'm thinking about building this one (not a surf kayak though).
Should be alot easier, than stripping a surf kayak :

Would also consider building a surf ski, i anyone should have suggestions for a stripper design ?
