Hi everyone,
Building my fifth Pygmy, this time a Pinguino 145 for a friend of ours. I'm using the "taping method" instead of stitch and glue with wires and dozens of holes. I've taped every boat except the first Coho, and I've really enjoyed the cleaner look. In my opinion the taping method is easier, quicker, and results in a much better looking boat.
If interested in seeing the progress, please see my blog at https://pygmykayakbuildblog.blogspot.com/
The hull is currently all epoxied together and I've just added the keel tape (I add the keel tape before glassing the entire hull). Next step is to glass the hull!
I'll add a few attachments here too.
Happy paddling!
Steve
