Default Enlarging Arctic Hawk Cockpit Rim

Let me start by saying I'm not a wooden boat builder.

I have seen lots of people modify CLC's kits. I don't see why you couldn't
also modify the Hawk kit.


Mike,

Chesapeake Light Craft now sells an Arctic Hawk kit. You could make it
to whatever specs you want.

I imagine you could get them to sell you a coaming if that is all you
wanted, but it would be wood.


I'm not so sure about that. The Arctic Hawk kit is only available as a kit.
Mark Rogers (the designer) licensed the design to CLC but I heard that he
only wanted it available as a kit, and not sold as plans. The cockpit for
the CLC version might not even fit the cockpit for a glass version. The
Superior Kayaks wood version is not identical to the glass version. The
glass version is a half inch shorter and narrower.
