I’m building an Osprey Std from Pygmy Boats.  It is a 15′8″ wood-core sea kayak with a 24″ beam.  The kayak comes in a kit that is made up of CNC cut 4mm high grade plywood that is stitched together and then fiberglassed.  I expect the kit from UPS tomorrow hopefully they won’t disappoint.

Well I spent a few hours this weekend constructing a work bench for the kayak.  It will give me a 16ft x 3ft flat level work surface to build on.  It is made of the straightest 2×4s I could find in my pile and I have put 3/4″ plywood down on top of the frame.
