Timelapse: Skin on Frame Kayak Build, from Wood to Water

[@daveybass655]

The kayak build was cool, but, I was way more impressed with how fast you can move ! Thats amazing !

[@simonmanning1844]

Not sure whats better. The video music editing or the kayak craftsmanship. Awesome.

[@capefalconkayak]

Hey, thanks!

[@blue03mule]

Thanks Brian! I got a lot of enjoyment watching this video... especially when you and Liz took them out in the end.

Thanks for capturing the build of these beautiful kayaks!! Fascinating to watch them come together!!

Educational, entertaining, definitely! Loved the art of this build. The video itself was great. Thank you.

I followed the Cape Falcon plans & videos for crafting a Greenland paddle...I just love it. Thanks Brian!

Living in Little Roc k AR now; watching this reminds me how much I miss living 3 to 4 blocks away from Biscayne bay (Miami FL), carrying my 12' fiberglass canoe I use to own (this is 30 + years ago) to the bay and paddling out to one of the islands :-/ If I ever get around to building my own S.O.F. kayak (after finishing the "honey dos" there's a large stream not too far from my house that might do nicely.

А как с помощью ремня загибает вроде в ранних видео где-то мелькало. Я гнул с помощью стальной линейки. Рейки в довесок перед распаркой еще пару дней вымачивал, на ура гнётся, это мне старые каякеры подсказали.

So awesome! Would have liked to see the time lapse stop when the kayaks hit the water for a peaceful, serene ending...

This kept going through my head watching this lol. Great work. "No, not too bad. About 18 hours. Which isn't bad, considering I carved it all by hand from one piece of wood."

[@rinaldobaptista985]

Parabéns, irmão. Uma obra de arte!

[@donp244]

I'm going to lie I never thought building would seem to require more skill then building a small house on your own. Very intricate work

[@capefalconkayak]

Not at all, skin on frame is ridiculously forgiving by boat building standards, build time ends up being about 50 hours. If you check out the student builds blog on our website we just had a 13-year-old girl complete one of these completely by herself.

[@oregonianpjb]

Liked the music on this too!

[@мыслимудрецов]

Великолепно, буду пробовать делать такой же каяк, спасибо за видео!

[@Yeti809]

Шикарно!! 👍👍

[@mr.robinson1982]

All that work just to get ON the water. What killed me was after on the water you didn't fish...I use my kayak to flyfish every chance I get...Your dedication to your craft is commendable.

[@capefalconkayak]

I love kayak fishing. I use a sit on top inflatable for steelhead but one of these kayaks for ocean fishing. My biggest fish are a 30 pound halibut and a 30 pound chinook.

[@Ykguyg]

Only one ad and on the end. Respect

[@rodfriesen4370]

Does it puncture easily! Lots of rocky beaches I would slide up on. Awesome! I'd love to build one!

[@johannavargas8273]

Beautiful work!!!!

[@beardeddragon1706]

I'm always scraping bottom on something I didn't see straight away or pulling it over beaver dams or running into unique situations when portaging from one lake to the next... Your canoe is real pretty, that's top notch craftsmanship. I'd be scared to put a hole in it when I'm days into the back country...

[@capefalconkayak]

Check out the video that I uploaded called skin on frame durability. I go into a ton of detail about this but the cliff notes are. It’s not indestructible by any means but has an equivalent durability to any other type of boat the same weight. And you can always put on a heavier skin for more durability. I lost a tandem in a nasty surf landing about 10 years ago and it flushed around the corner and into a cliff lined rock Cove. The kayak rolled up and down the rocks in the surf for an entire tide cycle until we could get to it. There were no punctures in the skin and only one broken rib. Although everything made of metal on deck including my fishing reels and the rudder was obliterated. In that same video I show what happened to a skin last summer when myself and my girlfriend got high centered on a piece of submerged rebar in the canoe.

[@ivogarza9339]

Must be the slowest builder in the world; took me 6 full days to do what Brian did in minutes. Course they were rewarding days.

[@jaydeer6367]

Can you tell me the length and beam and (most importantly to me) the finished weight of the kayak you built in this video. Thank you.

[@ivogarza9339]

@@jaydeer6367 there are east and west Greenland plans, f1 and long pointy boat plans, canoe plans and hopefully coming soon a river kayak with what looks like leanings toward a northern Alaska style. The kayak shown appears to be the f1 which is the sea kayak with good surfing characteristics. The plans change the dimensions to tailor the kayak to you. The weight is between 24 and 30 pounds. I am 240 # which was about the largest size and the finished boat with lines was just at 29 pounds. The length is between 13' - 3" and 14' - 3". The beam is 22 to 26", the waterline is narrower. This is the quickest boat I have ever paddled. The Greenland boats will be narrower. There is a stretched version (LPB) that is longer, if you are a sprinter not a normal tourer. The f1 works well for me on inland seas, lakes and mild rivers. It was designed for the ocean coastline, but those are a ways from here. Go on over to the cape falcon kayak site and poke around.

[@CLASSICALBUILDER]

Loved the music and this fast action film. Those must be really heavy though. When you have built 5 boats, you will have reached the threshhold of insanity. I know.

[@capefalconkayak]

Thanks!! They’re actually a lot lighter than you think about the same weight as the lightest carbon fiber Kayaks you can get, but at the same time a lot more resistant to impact damage.

7 days is not bad for a bespoke kayak that will last year's!

[@skypieper]

Work of art my man. I wouldn't want to take that thing out, I'm rough on my yak lol.

[@capefalconkayak]

I think you’d be surprised. It’s not bulletproof like a plastic kayak, But it will bounce off of things that would put a hole in a Carbon, Kevlar or fiberglass boat. A few years back we lost a tandem in the surf and it washed around the corner into a cliff lined cove, where full of water it washed up and down a rock slope through 2 tide cycles before I could get down to get it. One cracked rib and no skin punctures. So pretty good for something that weighs about 30 pounds. If you check out the channel here I’ve got a video on the skin on frame durability where I have a picture of my friends truck that he rolled over his boats. Couple broken deck beams but still no skin punctures. That one kind of blew my mind because the truck was totaled, sure it had something to do with how he rolled though. You can see the shape of the boat where it smashed in the windshield and the top of the cab.
