In Response To: Other: Surfski Cockpit design. (John Messinger)

Here are links to two surfski
cockpits on Spray and Spindrift, one in wood strip and one laminated.
The text is unfortunately in Swedish only, but for Jan-Olof Karlsson's
wood strip version the photos tells the whole story:

Roger
Karlsson's beautiful cockpit pod, laminated on a foam mold, is also
told with pictures, but his text contains some interesting ideas and
descritions of mistakes that could have been avoided (Google translate
may come in handy for anyone interested in this method). His description
is divided over a number of blog posts, starting here:

... to go forward find the link titled "senaste inlägg" at bottom left.
