Skin-on-Frame: Beginner Kayak Builder
Hi all! I am completely new to building kayaks, however I have a passion for kayaking and want to immerse myself into the community. For my highschool senior year engineering project I decided to tackle the task of constructing a kayak. I'm currently leaning toward building a Sea Bee 13, due to prior suggestions claiming it was a good boat to begin with. I was wondering if you all had any suggestions for a beginner?
I weight 165, am 5'10 and have a shoe size of 10. I live in central Florida and I would kayak in calmer waters such as springs or local rivers, with the roughest water being open waters such as the Gulf.
