I have just completed a Pygmy Arctic Tern, will probably go in the water for the first time tonight. I was VERY impressed by the engineering of the kit, the way it went together. The multi-chine cambered deck is very attractive and strong. No bending or stressing wood is required. Each piece went together with precision. Once the hull was wired together it required NO alignment. The entire process took about 55 hours with an average 2 hour increment for each step. Finished boat with all bulkheads and Pygmy hatch hardware/bungies is 37lbs.
