Wow! That's beautiful, Don. Please post some pics with different views, especially the cockpit. What are you doing for a seat? Maybe you should build a small Adirondack Chair for it! Hehehe!!! That would definitely be comfortable!

That would definitely be comfortable! Artie here is a pic with the seat sitting in it. (baby brothers are good for something)It has the same seat as mine.

On the contrary, the 32 gal is good. I found my plane on sale at Depot for something like $199.

man, thats one sweet ride. that is alot more special than anything hobie or native can produce. just to be able to say you build it with your bare hands is amazing, but to say you build it using your own design is crazy.
so what is that box in front of the seat for? looks like its for the native propel system. the kayak looks to be very wide, stability looks to be excellent!

Thanks, Jerry.
The box in the center is the storage console, I'm sure. But I do think this design would lend itself well to a Propel or Mirage drive.
Don, I would really love to come by and check that out up close. I'm only 15 minutes down the road from you.

The box is a console lined with Styrofoam and sealed so it can be used for a cooler. I am building the lid now.
Artie, did I give you my phone number awhile back? If so give me a call.
