Despite all the times I have heard people protest "I would be afraid to put it in the water." I design and build my boats to be used. I use my own designs on the water, in all conditions, and all year around.On these pages you will find information and stories about using kayaks and small boats.
Nick Schade’s course teaches strip-planked boatbuilding, creating two designs: the Adirondack Guide Boat and the microBootlegger Sport sea kayak.
