    Chesapeake Light Craft, the home-built wood ones?
    Something about the wrinkle in your forehead tells me there's a fit about to get thrown
    And I never hear a single word you say when you tell me not to have my fun
    It's the same old shit that I ain't gonna take off anyone.
    and I never had a shortage of people tryin' to warn me about the dangers I pose to myself.

    I'm considering building a Chesapeake Tandem in the very near future.

    Do it! Do it!

    I built mine from the plans Wooden Boat magazine sells, so it took a bit longer than the kit wood require, but even then their estimates are a tad skimpy time wise. I also thought the list of recommended tools was a bit on the skimpy side. Still a fun project though.

    Thumbs up

    powderwhore, I'm interested in building a wooden kayak. Do you still have your plans? Where did you get them?

    I love how you did that pattern!
