Björn Thomasson's Fast sea kayak built by Bryan Atkins

About 6 years ago I built my first cedar strip kayak. The experience was addictive, and I have an opportunity to build a second, starting now. Follow along as I spend a few hundred hours working on a craft that I hope will ultimately weigh in at around 35lbs, and is similar in dimensions to those boats paddled by top Olympic racers. 

Starting off with 12 copies of the plans to cut up and transfer to plywood forms
