Thank you so much, that will help A TON!

: Have you checked the CLC builder's forum as well? I've seen atleast 2 clc
: boats built as high school senior projects in the past. I'll try to find
: the pages later today.

: The CLC forum has people from all over. They also have a directory of people
: who have built there boats. You could check that and see if there are any
: people on it who live in your area. Also, check meetup.com for a kayaking
: group in your area. Maybe someone in such a group could mentor you.

: I'll get you links to all of these pages by tonight.
