    Essential Book for Anyone Doing Stitch and Glue
  

*by L***N on Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2004*

This book is more complete than the manual that came with the two Chesapeake kayaks I built this year or "The New Kayak Shop" I used to augment the manual.  It would not serve as a stand alone as it does not include plans.However, given plans or a kit this book will provide basic and detailed techniques, and special tricks that will help you  build a very good boat.  I will read it very carefully before building my next.The organization makes it especially useful as a reference book. A little over half of it covers the techniques for building and finishing stitch and glue kayaks.  The remaining portion is a step by step log of the actual building of Chesapeake Mill Creek, a Pygmy Coho, and a Bear Mountain Enterprise.  The Enterprise is a hybrid with a stitch and glue hull and strip built deck.The authors are very much on appearance rather than performance.  There is much detail on varnishing.  Note that the three kayaks built here do not have a hatch on the front deck (They didn't want to clutter their beautiful staining and varnishing.)so don't look for guidance on laying out your deck rigging.This is by far the most complete reference I've seen on this type of boat construction.

    beautiful book
  

*by M***L on Reviewed in the United States on March 9, 2020*

Not great as far as specific plans, but shows how beautiful a home built kayak can be.

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Good Overview
  

*by T***Y on Reviewed in the United States on September 7, 2014*

Its a good overview of how to build a plywood kayak KIT.  It does not give you any plans to build one from scratch.. If you are looking for a good overview of what will be involved, and some caveats to the construction it is a good guide.
