The simple deck design really helpted to speed the stripping. I think I could have shortened the build another few days because of other things I had going on. I was working on a friends house about 3 days a week, and didn't do much on the kayak those days. I'm getting anxious to put it in the water. Should be a fun little boat. I've been calling it "Skinny Minnie." Take care, and stay tuned for handling/paddling reports.

Looks great, Tony! And it took you how long? Two months? I am really inspired. I can't wait to hear how she paddles. Wow! Looks great, Tony! And it took you how long? Two months?
