Last month I made my first SOF, a Sea Flea for my grand-children. I'm really happy with it and so are the children. After making only strippers and an S&G I was amazed to be able to make a kayak so quickly and so cheaply. Thank you very much Tom Yost for the plans and a great web-site. The first day we tried it there were small waves and an early capsize so I duct-taped on some extra stability and made the seat less slippery and everything went fine after that. By the end of the visit the noodles weren't necessary. We were having too much fun to get good photos.
