Might have some time to make a boat this fall and spring and was thinking of making strip sea kayak. Want something reletively stable, that would hold me, 6', 180 lbs, size 11 shoes and maybe enough stuff for a weekend camping trip once in awhile. Great Auk sounds like it might work. Anyone having made one or used one, I would appreciate some feedback on you likes, dislikes or suggestions for other boats. Also, if anyone has pictures of Great Auk, I would like to see more. Not many on this site. Input is appreciated.
