Just curious how much weight saved to stiffness and strengh lost in your opinion. I just built a surf GP with unidirectional carbon fiber in the center laminations, and want to build a light GP for standard paddleing. Your technique sounds alot easier than the Birds's mouth laminating, thanks Don
I would also like to thank all you guy that are doing kayaks to pay the bills for sharing your time and ideas with all . If your do not want to share your hard won ideas and give away the farm, I completely understand.
PS. I know a euro would most likely better in the surf,no need to start that one ,ha ha:-).

: with two wide strips, and you have a hollow loom... I can send you a
: picture tonight if you like.
