In Response To: Skin-on-Frame: The right yost (Wait)

: Hallo folk,
: I am going to build my first skin on (wood) frame kayak. There are
: lot of designs by Yost I really like, but not sure what's the
: best choice for me.
: I am 1,82 height, and not so light weight, so I need good roomy
: foot place. And I'd like the kayak will track easy and fast. I
: will use it for camping and bird watching. (I thought the
: schultz's f1 would have been the best choice for me, but it's my
: first attempt to build a sof, so I need something easy to
: build).
: What would you do if you were in my shoes?
: Thanks
I built a sea rider for my wife.Its great for her but to small for me. But it tacks great and is very fast.I am 6-3 and have size 13 feet,170 lbs. I cant get in. But im shure it could be enlarged for a larger person. I was thinking maybe a ft longer and a inch larger all the way around. kirk
