Folks
A year ago I looked for ideas from the forum for a Kayak that would perform as a good sea boat on the irish atlantic coastline. I decided to build Rob Macks North Star and can say that everything that Rob claims about the kayak is true. All in all it's simply superb.
So anybody who is tall I'm 6'4" and looking for a design with leg room that can handle sea and wind - the North Star has got to be on your short list.
I'd post a picture but can't figure out how to upload one.
Thanks to everybody for all the help during the build
Pat
