s&g vs strip - who's heavier ?

Posted by: erez on December 20, 1999

2 questions:

1. S&G kayaks are made of 4mm plywood (usually). strippers are made of wood strips that are thicker than 4mm. so doesn't it makes strippers inherently heavier than S&G ?

2. doe's it float ? a plate of 4mm plywood, glassed (+ epoxy) on both sides.

in fresh water ? salt water ?
