I started this blog when I was restoring a 1917 Kennebec canoe. Now I have added to my boat building adventures, and built a kayak. I also have pages about birds and astronomy.
I finally got around to putting the deck rigging on. I had made the wooden pieces a few weeks ago, from cherry scraps I had in the shop. The beads came from the skinboat shop. I gave them several coats of polyurethane to keep them from weathering.
I opted to put grab lines the length of the kayak, so if I end up swimming, I can hold onto the kayak and the wind doesn't take it.
