: Which weighs more, a pound of feathers or a pound of lead? :D

: How thick of strips on the stripper, how much glass and epoxy, is it made of
: cedar, or walnut? Same goes for the s&g, thickness?, glass?, meranti or
: okumme?

: Personnaly, for light weight I'd go for skin on frame. My 17.5' s-o-f, that
: you were in when you were capsized by that rogue wave at R2K, weighs 24
: pounds, and could have been built lighter.

Feathers are easier to pick up, pound of lead is tiny :)
