Hello Everyone,
I am so thrilled to be back!
A few of the members here may remember my daughter and I on here in the summer of 2007. My daughter Lilly and I built one of Tom Yost's Sea Flea design and I was in here on occasion asking for advice.
Now we are back. Lilly outgrew her kayak at the end of last years season and is asking Mom about the new boat for this year. So, here we are... and you'll probably see me peeking in as we embark on yet another SOF building adventure.

My first dilema is... What model should I build next?
I was looking strongly at the Sea Pup.
Since Lilly is too big for the Sea Flea now... she weighs about 60'ish pounds ... Im guessing the Sea Pup is the next step.
Any other opinions???
I dont mind building a kayak every couple of years for her, but I do want to ensure that it will atleast last 2 paddling seasons. I hope.

Also, if I do go with the Sea Pup, I will be looking for someone to help me out with the conversions. I had a friend help me sit down and do the last set of conversions for her Sea Flea, but that was a long time ago.
Anyone here have the offsets in inches? Or better yet.. would you have them drawn out already? I would be thrilled to pay for your time and postage if you have a set to offer.

Im also giving it some serious consideration to building an adult size boat at the same time. On occasion we find a friend that would like to go paddling with us, but dont have a kayak... It sure would be fun to have a spare! Havent even began to think of which one I will build.

Building two boats at once? Hmmm I like a challenge. *grins*.

Excited to begin!
Looking forward to hearing from you all!
Warm Smiles, ~Heather and Lilly
