    Thanks. Glad you are inspired. I finished and paddled the kayak a few times on the pond across the way. Excellent comprimise of stability, speed, and cross-wind balance. Cockpit was too far back and so I'll be adjusting the cockpit position forward 8" or so.
    The internal mold method is sound, nice to build right side up. I hope to try an improved boat when I have time.
    Thanks for your interest.
