I just bought Jeff's book: Fuselage Frame Boats: A guide to building skin kayaks and canoes. It should arrive soon. In the meantime I was planning which kayak I wanted to build first. I heard mention of the FreeB 12' and FreeB 14'. The plans for the 14' don't seem to be available anywhere. Is there a reason they seem to have disappeared?
Also, I'm a larger gentleman: 6'1" and 280lbs. Would I break the FreeB 12? Any recommendations on the first kayak I should build?
