In Response To: Ultralight Sea Kayak Idea (David Blodgett)

: I have been
: looking at the ultralight boats made with many stringers held together
: with steam bent cross ribs, and covered with heat shrink dacron. Some of
: those canoes get down to about 10#'s and seem to be very nice craft. This
: is an example. http://www.geocities.com/colosseum/goal/4039/ My question
: is would it be possible to apply this same idea to a sea kayak?

Bill Price just finished the frame of his Geodesic Aerolite Redfish kayak.
