A Sea Kayak Is a joy never forgotten
absolutely beautiful work sir!!
Built on years ago great project , plans with patterns worth every penny the book is great and website helpful
That kayak is beautiful!
Love your work and your videos
I think ive seen all your vids guillemot12 start to finish superb work...
GORGEOUS!!!!
I'm assuming there're a couple bulkheads for the fore & aft storage compartments. Those and the FG and Kev work should give more than enough stability against torquing.
Man what I wouldn't give for a shop where I could try this.
Just beautiful,
Graeme
truly amazing work, your attention to detail never fails to astound me. about how many hours do you put into a boat like this?
lindo! Jóia! Wonderfull!
awesome kayak! Who are the music artists?
Awesome!
just a question: do some of the ribs come back into or is it completely stable without them?
Nice job. Is the kayak unsinkable?
nice job I like
Looks beautiful. Was is built by a carpenter or a sailor?
Alright, thanks a lot for the answer. I ordered the Kayak-building book of Nick Schade (guillemot12) yesterday - I hope everything else will be explained there. Maybe I will order one of his plans.
Its fiberglassed, and epoxied with carbon fiber kevlar material thus made hard. The carbon fiber material being as tough as steel and flexible until made rigid with epoxy. SO im guessing its structurally stable without ribs. It didnt have ribs at all though, the wood you see at the beginning is like a mould use to guide the strips into place then glued shut to each other.
Son una obra de Arte.
Its extremely stable without the ribs and such normally associated with other craft. It does not twist, or deform in any way. The composite structure is VERY rigid.
