In Response To: Build a folding kayak? (Craig Bumgarner)

I've traded email with Gerald Maroske who has built a folding kayak that looks very Khatsalano-ish. He said that he intended to make plans for it after he completed his graduate work. I don't know if he ever got around to it, but if enough people pummel him with requests, maybe we can get him going. The last website I had for him is http://elwood.gpi.uni-kiel.de/Kayak/ which I just checked and I get timeouts. Hopefully, that's a temporary condition. I can give you his email address if you'd like to try to ping him.
