Greetings to the Forum,

Today I finally launched my first build! I started it on Father's Day in 2010, when I recieved Nick's book as a gift from my wife. I had to take 6 months off this year because I was travelling back and forth to work out of state. But today I finally launched it.

Mucho Gracias to everyone on this forum and on the many build sites referenced throughout this forum. Your pictures and descriptions made it possible. Nick's books are great, but many of you provided that extra insight to help me understand how to complete the next step, where to buy the right materials, or just plain inspirition looking at your kayaks.

Greg N.
