cool video , really nice boats

: She built it, I mostly supervised (perfect!). Then she made a video, which I
: just now remembered. It's a wood framed, non-folding, nylon skinned Sea
: Otter design, complete building instructions for which can be found at
: yostwerks.com

: Paddles good. Doesn't seem to weathercock. Relatively roomy. Rolls OK (needs
: some thigh bracing). Very lightweight. Took 3-4 weeks to finish, for about
: $150 in materials.

: Anyway, it's an amusing 3 minute video that shows most of the steps involved
: in building a non-traditional SOF kayak. The other frame in the video is
: one I was building simultaneously - a Yost Sea Rider, which I lovelovelove
: (for two hours, max, as there is hardly any wiggle room for the legs).

: Enjoy . . . .
