Hi guys
wanted to upgrade my heavy plastic kayak 26 kg to something lighter
So got some plans from boat craft for the David Paynes TK1 single chine marathon racing Kayak, uses 3mm ply and just tape to the chines , would like some order of instructions to proceed
question is the plans come on a single B1 page, with mould station and bulkhead templates, scale 1:1,( please forgive my newbie questions)
are these the same,? do I simply trace then cut out a set of each?, set up a strong back ? laying them in line then cover in ply , or stitch and glue panels then place the moulds and bulkheads to hold the shape
also would like advice on best way to derive the side and bottom panel measures from the templates ,
cant find any photos of other builds to see how its done,
grateful for any help
regards
Glenn
