This is way off topic, but I was wondering if anyone on this board has built a tobaggan? And no, sledding down a snow covered hill in your kayak doesn't count.

I live in Buffalo, and I don't know if anyone has watched the news lately, but you might say that it snows here. I figure that a tobaggan can't be so hard to build, maybe even strip build...anyone try this yet? Would fiberglass / epoxy resin hold up to sledding over snow and ice? I've got some extra strips laying around from my great auk, so it's either this or a strip built cradle for my sister's baby.

Seat belts save lives. Well, don't they? :) *NM*
