The Bob's Special is also a good choice if wind is a regular feature of where you paddle, as the low ends are less affected by windage. Small enough to use setup as a solo canoe, yet large enough to work well as a tandem, the Bob's Special is really the epitome of what a small canoe should be.

It has a similar transitioning chine that is rounded in front and hard behind. This allows for smooth progress into waves, while providing a positive control surface while working down wind for capable surfing. This kayak will be reassuringto novice
KAYAK STABILITY
For those who prefer French, André Rose has translated this. What could be easier than stability? Just make the boat wide and it will be stable right? Yet, there are kayaks out there from 20" to 32" wide, all of which the manufacturers say are stable. After all, what manufacturer is going to say, "you need to be born in a kayak to keep this sucker upright"?PETREL "PLAY" PLANS
Purchase Plans for this Kayak. The Petrel Play is cross over kayak design, filling a niche between a relaxing recreational kayak and a hard core rough water sea kayak.It is wide enough to be stable and relaxing, yet narrow enough to be easy to move through the water. It is long enough to keep up with sea kayaks, yet short enough to be nimble and easy to control.STRIP BUILT
Strip Built. Strip building involves bending thin ( 1/4-inch or less) pieces of wood around temporary forms, edge-gluing them together, and then fiberglassing inside and out. It is a great method for making beautiful, lightweight, small boats. Also called "Cedar Strip", "Wood Strip", "Strip Planked" etc.STITCH AND GLUE
Stitch and Glue. The "stitching" is from the temporary wires used to hold the edges of thin sheets of plywood together until they are "glued." The plywood is sheathed in fiberglass for strength.

The Expedition Single is also designed to carry gear and will work well for heavier paddlers. The Guillemot "L" is specifically intended for larger paddlers who want to carry a fair amount of gear..

Using stains to add a little extra color to your boat. There is no accounting for taste, but for some reason I find okoume a little bit boring. While the grain can be quite nice, the color is often a little bland. In my opinion it would often benefit from a little pumping up.PETREL "PLAY"
