Build your own boat

The designer is Spira International out of Huntington Beach. The name of the boat is "Kachemak". Real simple design. The wood is simple kiln dried 2 x 4 and 2 x 3 with thin maple ply to strengthen the joints. The ribs are built stronger than the plans. I have enough marine grade ply for the transom only. It is the highest grade. I have two part epoxy for the joints but not enough for the fiberglass. I also have a draw knife for fairing that I can include. Oh yeah, I also have a safety kit that includes a safety suit, eye protection, gloves and respirator for you get serious about glassing the hull, and a finger joint router bit that I was planning to use to edge join the hull plywood. All yours for the price.
