Homemade Kayak Launch

Oh... I'm not sure you know the design.......

Here's part of the designer's reply upon seeing this report:


Take it out in some bumpy water and you'll get a feel for what it's designed for. Welcome to the club of short and stupid looking kayaks, if you can bear the looks, she handles like a swan.

This kayak is designed for surfing on the West Coast. Here's a sample image of what he uses it for:

I hope to be able to get out in that sort of surf some day.

Just done a quick scan for Gaybo Dominator on the intertubes and can't find a pic.

Haha, I'd love to have watched the moment that name was decided upon. If you build another, be sure to get some shots!
 
Nice work, thanks for sharing the pics.

I've got two small kayaks that I love using. Being in a kayak is a much more intimate experience with the wilderness IMO, compared to a boat.
