Hey Dave
I have been thinking about a boat for my son and through your link saw the kidyak do you have the building plans for that one at this time? If so I would like to look them over. I have only read though you guys on this site about skin on frame but it seems reasonable for a boat for my 4 year old. e-mail is d_gnr@hotmail.com
Any other designs I could look at for him would be a great help as I have not done any research into this kind of construction. or for something he could use for his size (45" and 43 pounds)
