So...I'm thinking that with the warm winter we've had in Washington this year, we may have an early end to ski season :( To keep myself from serious depression over the issue, I've started building a stitch-and-glue kayak from a kit (check out www.pygmyboats.com) as a replacement for my sit-on-top (bought it in CA when I lived there...not very practical for WA waters). So far, it's pretty straightforward...though time consuming. And, it takes up most of my family room (the only area in teh house long enough to handle the 17'5" length of the kayak). I'll post some pics as soon as I get some.
Though the process is fun so far, I can't wait to finish and take it out. It'll be such a sense of accomplishment and pride to paddle a 'yak I built myself, just for me
Has anyone else built a kit kayak? How do you like the finished product??
