Hi Ross,

Great job on your 1st Boat!! I'm glad you posted the pics since I was not able to view them otherwise. I think your Ash coamings added a nice accent to the darker body of wood. Your no-topside hatch tie downs definitely provides cleaner lines to the kayak design. We'll all be interested in your water tightness tests. Maybe you should patent this design and retire early :)
