Hello,
The frame is done, and looks sharp. Trying now to locate fabric. Am I
looking for 10 oz or #10 cotton canvas duck? I didn't realize their was
a difference. The #10 is somewhere between a 15 and a 18 oz canvas.
Most responses said it was a 15 oz. But can I use instead a 12 oz.
In the book by George Putz Kayak Building it says 10 oz. Is this strong
enough? The Aleutian Kayak by Wolfgang Brinck says #10.
What fabric is shown on the front of the book the Aleutian Kayak. I like
the translucent look.
Thanks
Arlene.
