Many of the techniques and tools that I used, came from watching Cape Falcon Kayak videos on you tube. The mad scientist lives on the Pacific northwest coast and builds amazing canoes and sea kayaks. All are skin on frame style. He prides himself on building them in the easiest and simplest methods possible. He even has classes to learn to build them. Majorly talented builder. He even rigged up some tandem canoes, and some with small collapsible sails. Check his videos out.

A couple of pictures of the inside of the canoe now that the skin is coated.

Here is a scrap piece of the thin polyester that I use to skin the boat.
