| Been trying to figure out a 2 seater myself and this is Bloody Awesome. I was thinking mashing 2 canoes together.
This is Even better as no Canoes were injured in the making of this 2 seater.
You could also fibreglass and resin or even bondo (depending if actually going to be waterborne).
Great Job. | |
