Spring break project 1

Here is some of the stuff I did during spring break last week. Started the week off by making my el-cheapo single seat kayak into a two seater by enlarging the opening, moving the original seat forward, and fiber glassing in another seat in the back. I had tested it with two people on board previously so I already knew it would still float, it was just a matter of how it would change the center of gravity and that kind of stuff. Took it out for another test after the modification and it works great, I now have what is probably the smallest two seat kayak ever. This is strictly a flat water boat now, and really that's all it was before so no loss there. I'll be using it mostly on the Wekiva river.
