MOUNTAINS OF DETAIL Even at an in-water show it’s hard to quantify all the subtle differences between our various high-performance kayaks and smallcraft. On our website we’ve filled in the details. You’ll find:  Profile Pictures  Line Drawings  Comparison Tools YOU SHOULD BUI  Videos  Construction photos  Discussions Why Build a Boat?  Testimonials Because it’s fun and because you really can get a better boat if you build it your- self. Even if it’s your first time. Chesapeake Light Craft boats use only the most modern methods: ultra-high-grade marine plywood, sheathed on both sides with epoxy and fiberglass. You get the beauty of wood (fiberglass and epoxy are clear) but none of the maintenance of your grandfather’s boats, because the MORE KIT OPTIONS THAN EVER wood is sealed away. We’ve got more than 90 boat kits, and every kit is available in more configurations than we could possibly cram into publications like this catalogue.

The optional Sapele deck is the darker timber on the right. Premium epoxy, fiberglass, seat, backband, footbraces, and deck rigging are included in all of our kayak kits. LD A BOAT! How to pick a project Here’s something we hear a lot: “Okay, direct me to the boat that’s easiest to build, and I’ll start with that one.” Well that’s tricky, because all of our boats are easy to build. If you’re in a real hurry, the smaller stitch-and-glue kayaks go a little quicker. A tour de force cedar strip kayak will require many hours and some sharp wood- working tools. But if you’re patient and willing to ask questions, none of the boats in this catalogue are beyond the reach of a first-time boatbuilder. We have just three requirements of our boat designers: Great performance, great looks, and ease of construction. Meet the CLC staff!
