Interesting! While on vacation, I just circumnavigated Beaver Island in Lake Michigan (unsupported) in one day (July 11). 42 miles around in 9:30, about 4.8 mph (moving average). I stopped three times to refill my hydration bladder and to empty my personal 66 year-old bladder! Just started paddling seriously with a new sea kayak just over a month prior and wanted to see how it would go. Here you almost always encounter wind and waves as the island is out in the middle of Lake Michigan. Every time you go around a corner the wind and waves are different. Look forward to doing it again next year. 😊 Thanks for posting!

It was a choice between capturing more distance or capturing more images. I set the camera up to take a shot every 10 seconds and then displayed the video at 25 frames/second. More frequent images would have been smoother but I would have used up my battery earlier. It was a trade off.

At roughly minute 13:00 you talk about trying to go after the shiny spot without leaving a bit of a hollow. Would alternative be to fill those shiny spot with just a touch of epoxy to the shiny spot (after roughing) and then sanding the created slight mound?
@NickSchade
@NickSchade 26 күн бұрын
Yes, If you can not get the surface to a uniform sanded surface without sanding into the glass, add more resin. If it is just a few isolated spots it is possible to carefully fill those spots, but it can be tricky to sand those spots fair due to the step between the filled area and its surrounding area.

@NickSchade
@NickSchade Ай бұрын
It is vacuum infusion. It is not a standard part of the strip plank method, but it produces a very good layup with a minimum of resin, saving weight and making a stronger layup. I’ve only done it on a couple boats. It’s a lot more work.

It is best to apply stain before you do any assembly. Any glue or epoxy will resist the stain and be hard to even out.

I think folks have seen how 'Do Able' stitch and Glue is -- the logical progression is S&G would be a Strip Built Deck boat. The beauty of the wood strip (Where it mostly seen and the swiftness of the S&G build below the waterline. It is my next project when I get the Sea Island Sport, Wood Duckling and a Coot finished from plans off of Fyne Boats UK

Maybe late to the party but here's my question. Working on a little auk 11 using you videos and the strip built kayak book for guidance. Is the coaming recess (page 97) required to receive the coaming itself? Or can I just install the vertical coaming strips to the strips on the deck?
@NickSchade
@NickSchade Ай бұрын
You can install the vertical strips without the recess. This will make for a coaming lip that forms a peak at the front and back. If you have the Kayak Building Notes that came with the plans, you will see an idea for a little mini recess at front and back which makes it easier to form a coaming lip that is smooth and rounded at front and back.
