Boatbuilding boot @ Belgian Kayak happening 2006

Post by Erik, Belgium »

After my ISP having hostingproblems today (friday the 13th indeed...), I finally managed to put the pics online:

All kind of building techniques were shown at our boot last weekend: woodstrip, Yost folder, traditional Greenland Skin-on-Frame, Stich & Glue...
A great number of (plastic) kayakers and canoers have discovered what wooden boat and paddle building is like.
We met up with other builders, and persons who are planning to start building a kayak or canoe.

It was a great experience, thanks.

Erik, Belgium.
