The CLC Expedition Wherry is finished!

 I've become a horrible blogger! So lazy. I haven't posted for ages but kept on working on my boat. Now it's done! Ta Da! Seven coats of Pettit Flagship 2015 varnish followed by a polishing Interlux 404/414 Primekote primer followed by four coats of Interlux Perfection "Snow White".  If I find the energy I may post more of the build pictures, but for now... I'm done! Aloha!

The Pygmy Borealis XL Kayak Maiden Paddle!

Ta da!!!! It's finished! Took a short but very successful maiden paddle today! I love the Pygmy Borealis XL kayak! It is SO stable compared to the Coho and Coho Hi Volume boats that I've made before. This is the perfect kayak for someone my size. It will be wonderful! I was out for less than 20 minutes before I had to return for an appointment, but will take it on a proper test paddle this weekend up in Port Townsend. Can't wait!! Aloha!
