: Thanks Bill, I see the point..I'm actually toying with a few ideas,
: partially inspired by another Dane, who has built a few a what
: he calls GSOF's
: One of them was to epoxy a 4" strip of fiberglass lenghtwise
: on the outside of each bottom stringer before covering with the
: dacron, then using the strips to lock squares of glass in place,
: essentially crating a sandwich hull, with the dacron as
: "ham"... but maybe not..
: Ulrik
Pretty easy to end up with a very heavy SOF, which really bothers me on a boat that can be very light. Light is nice.
In the end it is still a SOF, needs a bit more care in use than say a poly boat, but you end up with a really light weight kayak that has it's own advantages.
