Alright, I am new to the building of kayaks, but would like any and all information on: How to get started, What type of kayak will be the best for a first time builder to build, where to get plans, how much time and $$ i should be prepared for, etc.

I thouroughly enjoy basic wood-working, but am very interested in taking on this project....

Thanks ahead of time for the input and advice !!!
