Woodenboat Workshop: Day 4
Marty's story: "It was on my bucket list"
In a series of short videos over the next seven days, Canoe & Kayak follows first-time kayak builders as they turn boxes of wood, wire and fiberglass into handcrafted wooden kayaks. Today, Paul tells about his two kayak projects–the unfinished one in the garage, and the one he’s building at the workshop. “The workshop was a great way to get the confidence to go back and finish the kayak we started.”
