Going back thousands of years, kayaking season has always corresponded with the retreat of the ice. I don’t get many pictures of my modern skin-on-frame kayaks juxtaposed with an icy landscape, so thanks to Mark for these wicked photos!
Mark writes: “Hi Brian – I may have worked a bit too fast on my build. The kayak is ready to paddle. Unfortunately, Lake Superior has other plans (see photos). I’m very excited to give it a try, but I’m afraid liquid water is still months away.
This project provided a perfect form of relief from Covid tedium. Doable for someone with my skill set, but challenging enough to keep me fully engaged.”
So cool. If you build one of my boats, send me your photos and videos!
