Sixteen Foot Kayaks Finished!

I actually finished the construction of these two boats in December but waited till this month to install the deck lines. Returning to the same place as the photos of the frames were taken new photos of the finished boats were taken.

Montauk Commercial Fish Docks

I had a free day and spent it at the commercial fishing docks at Montauk. I have always found working boats and the gear fascinating. This day the colors of the gear caught my attention.

Sixteen Foot Kayak Frame

A hobby of mine is building skin on frame kayaks. Recently I finished two kayaks both sixteen feet long. I built them simultaneously and when the frames were finished I photographed one frame. Perching the frame on Shinnecock Jetty was an ideal background to display the framework. Shortly when the weather permits both kayaks will be photographed in there finished state.
