Help! How do I select which kayak to build?

Posted by: Bruce Boulter on December 30, 1999

I am very interested in building a strip kayak. My problem is selecting the proper plan.

I have no experience in kayaking, but have canoed and have a great deal of experience in the sport of rowing. I would like to be able to use my kayak on lakes, calm rivers, and possibly in the ocean as well. I expect most trips will be day length but would like the option of being able to carry gear as well. I weigh about 130 pounds.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Bruce Boulter
