When I built my first stripper many years ago, I was convinced that there was nothing finer on the water. Over the years, and nearly 30 homebuilt boats later ( wood SOF, aluminum SOF, woodstrip, S&G, and aluminum SOF folders), I am now convinced that they all are great boats. They just have different characteristics, but I cannot in my own mind, say that any one type is superior. The more you build, the more open you become to the idea that different type kayaks have many more similarities than differences.
