: I was thinking based on the PVC instructions you have I would be stapling on
: the inside of the gunwale.

You are correct. I forgot that I did the Sea Bee hull staples a bit differently.

: Do you know what material Ren Kohrsen used on his Sea Ranger wood frame?
: Looks like PVC from the picture, that's a beautiful boat.

Yes, he used PVC. At the link below ,click on "Gallery Index ( By Design)".
I just added this to the 3 manual's....Thanks to Thomas Zeigler (DE) for
setting this up :)

There are several wood Sea Rangers there with mostly sewn nylon skins. The
last one is PVC by Bill Soderberg. Perhaps these and other wood frame designs
there will help you decide.

Have Fun, Tom
