As I come closer to finishing the latest canoe, I am already starting to think about the next. I have always built canoes. 40 years ago it was a 18 foot micmac freighter, but I don't get stronger each year.
I was walking through mountain equipment coop the other day looking at all the kayaks. $4300 for a fiberglass kayak - and it didn't even look good. Yellow just doesn't work for me. I started to think it was time to built the kayak. Kayaks are nice, but I had been looking at bidarkas thinking how nice they looked.
So my question is: has anyone built one? Did you modify a kayak design or is there an original design available?
