Around Christmas time, I bought a kayak kit from Pygmy Boats and started assembling it. It's a construction process known as stitch and glue. The mahogany panels are drilled every six inches and sewn together with a thin metal wire. The panels are then glued with epoxy and the stitches removed. Fiberglass is then laminated inside and out for strength.
