In Response To: Skin-on-Frame: Adding upswept bow & stern on a yost kayak? (Bob)

Hi Bob,
When I skinned my Yost Sea Cruiser, there is/ was no member up forward on the centreline. The skin (Skinboats ) goes taut from inwale to inwale upon shrinking/applying Corey's famous Goop. If sewn reasonably tightly then I expect the cloth will pull/sit flat across the inwales no problem. Could send you pics in about 7 days ( currently 1,500km from home and my computer pics) if you email me direct on mcbunny09@gmail.com

Cheers from Martin,
Mandurah, Western Australia.
