The rockered keel profile makes it quite manuverable and seaworthy. The plans provide for a simple change to make a straight keel for speed and straight tracking. The light weight makes it easy to get out on the water in a minute's notice. Partial kits provide the unique materials needed for each particular boat design. Specifically, they include cut-to-length 3.7 oz.

72" width heat-shrink Dacron fabric, Kevlar roving, structural epoxy adhesive (1 to 1) mix thickened to a viscosity similar to Vaseline (very low toxicity), and Heat N Bond tape (hot melt glue). The plans consist of full-sized patterns, detailed scaled drawings, a complete bill of materials and a step-by-step construction manual. Please note that this listing is for plans and kits.
