Building a new Kayak

While the ananda rests a while waiting for improvements I decided to channel the rest of  my energy building a new kayak. This kayak at some point I also think of turning it into a trimaran. After you have tried and navigated one it is very difficult to leave it.
This is a 17 foot long kayak made according to the plans acquired at  Chesapeake Light Craft  . For its construction I used 4mm thick plywood cover with fiberglass cloth and epoxy resin.
