If you're like me, heven forbid , you'll end up with enough wood for a couple extra kayaks by the time you get done with this one ;)

I'm always searching for wood for the next boat, find a perfect piece you wern't really looking for can give you interesting ideas for what designs you want to do.

I'm going for simple on the next boat, Bryan's design, but it'll be flamed, subtle hot rod flames, in wood. Don't ask me how that's gonna work, no idea yet.
