Don:

Sorry about taking so long in replying.  We have had the boats on seven different lakes: they handle very well and inspire confidence.  They have changed Linda from a shore hugger to someone who will head (almost) [Linda’s word] anywhere on the lake and enjoy it.  We get a lot of compliments on the design of the boats.  The puzzle joints, the excellent fit of all the pieces, high quality of material, and comprehensive manual all add up to make an excellent value and high quality kit.  The building process was challenging enough to make them fun to build, but not so difficult as to make it a chore.  They really test sanding skills, the more elbow grease and care taken (during all phases) the better the final results.

Everyone should get out and order at least one if not more of these kits and experience the self-gratification and pride that building, owning and paddling them can bring.

Thank you,
Max & Linda
