Don,

You aren't going to beat me to it and do a strip version of the Walrus are you? ;) A srtip built hard-chine kayak should be easy, but the form spacing might cause problems. You may want to tack some intermediate strips between but parallel to the forms to help make sure you don't get any warpage. If you do it as a strip built, best of luck. It is something I eventually plan to do.

: I went garage sailing today with the wife, and picked up 160' of clear, flat
: grained cedar 1x4 tounge and groove, for $10. :)

: Now I know what to do with the Walrus forms I have lined up...
