The Baidarka kayak is finally getting 'glassed! This has been a really long term project. I bought some cedar strips used about 15 years ago, and they've been hanging around the shop and getting in the way ever since. I drew up the lines about 12 years ago, and I cut the stations about 10 years ago. The mold has been assembled for about 4 years, and I planked it up last fall.
Now I'll be glad to to get the mold out of the way!
So, on goes the fiberglass.


And done. This hull will be painted so I'm really not worried about how "pretty" the woodwork is. I'll leave that effort for the deck, I prefer the look of a solid colour hull and bright finished deck.
