Hi all,
after 8 months, the canoe is finished and ready for the water.
I wish to thank all those who so generously share their knowledge on this forum, especially Pete Rudie, who advised me on the use of locally available epoxy systems, ansd who displayed a remarkable tolerance of my panic mails...
Also, I wish to announce the imminent start of a new project: one of those skinny wood strip cigars with a hole in the center. And I blame this on you people, who without knowing, talked me into building a kayak and then learn to use it.
I would never dream of doing such a thing, were it not for the e-proximity of so many experienced kayak builders and paddlers. So, many thanks and enjoy the fotos of my boat.
Happy holidays,
Pascal
