: looks like this is going to be a great resource during my first
: build!

: If anyone has any advice they'd like to share it would be much
: appreciated!

: Thanks,

A fine boat to start with, I think. I'm currently working on a modified version of the Chukanut 15 which will hopefully be ready in the semi-near future. (If I ever actually get back to working on it.) My best piece of advice is to ask questions whenever you need to because most of them have been asked before. No need to worry about looking foolish here (or on any of the other kayak building forums around) just ask away. That boat is a fairly straight-forward build but just in case...
