Hi Bill,

I've been surfing the qajaqusa site for quite some time and it's an excellent resource.

I have the book "Making Skin on Frame Boats" by Robert Morris and I intend to use it's guidelines for building a boat. Suggestions for my second book.....

For my first boat I'm leaning toward having a go at the F1 from Cape Falcon. http://www.capefalconkayak.com/f1details.html Now if I just knew how to use a Survey....

Thanks,
Bill
