Skin-on-Frame: Yost Sea CruiserR "Wrinkle" Launched *PIC*

Hi All

At last my Yost Sea Cruiser R has been finished and launched (and named "Wrinkle"). It's my first V hulled kayak and found it a bit tippy to begin with. I'm assured I will get used to it. It was launched at dusk this evening in a force 4/5 wind (not that it shows in the wave heights in the photos - due to a protective sandbar). I'm very pleased with it.

Many thanks to Tom Yost for making the design, construction notes available. Also to Bill, Dave and Barry of this forum for their helpful advice. In addition I would like to thank all forum members for their posts which have provided a good read and an occasional boost for me to get on and finish my project.

Cheers, TomR
