Fred--

You're right about the "9 1/2" being the Record model number for their 20 degree block plane. The "60 1/2" is the low angle (12 1/2 degree) model. Either will work fine for most all kayak building applications, especially if kept "Scary Sharp." I found the Scary Sharp instructions on a web page last summer and, although I had little prior tool sharpening experience, I was able to sharped my plane irons and chisels like I never believed possible.
