: Details? Pics? Anything?

: I LOVE the lines of the Disko Bay, I'm just too fat of an ass to
: make it in!

Sorry about the slow reply - I'm up in Maine for a bit.

The Disko Dreadnaught is 18' x23" and should be just dandy for boaters up to about 250lbs. But still tight for big guys, as Greenland kayaks are wont to be. Don't be fooled by the length - the Disko Bay has very, very long stems.

I never got around to making a building guide for the kidyak - I just recommend people build Tom Yost's Sea Flea or Kidarka, instead!
