In Response To: Carbon Fiber -vs- Wood (Jay Babina )

: Building a kayak out of wood is a natural
: extension for all those who are amateur woodworkers. The fact
: that you glass the exterior and have to use epoxy is just part
: of the necessary evils of the process.

Absolutely in a nutshell Jay. The joy is in the joynery. The glassing is just a chore that has to be endured.
