: if I just knew how to use a Survey....

: Thanks,

Hi Bill,

I'm in a similar position as you, am currently reading Morris' book from the library, and after reading, bought Cunningham's "Building the Greenland Kayak" book. It's slightly more detailed in some areas. I'll also be using tips from other sites as well, and kind of incorporating different bits from all over into the final build project... :)

I've collected a pretty extensive list of websites related to the various bits I'm planning, if you want to see, let me know.

Good luck!
