This is a really nice looking kayak. I would enjoy, not only making something like this, but putting it to the test. Enjoy the “fruits of your labor”.

I have looked at some of the Bear Mountain plans for kayaks. I have a copy of kayak craft, a truly great and informative book. I would just love to build a strip kayak or canoe someday. Just don’t know how I would ever get it out of my shop; LOL.
Your project looks like it came out mighty nice. What design is it?..... enjoy!

My wife does not put he foot down on 99% of my projects, but building ANY kind of boat is verbotent! I will have to put something soft down so she doesn’t hurt her foot when I try to build some kind of boat. Yours is beautiful. I have read many articles and booklets about kayaks and when my wife sees me reading them, she rolls her eyes…LOL I think I will make something really nice for her and then drop da’ bomb on her…LOL
