Here you can see how the cedar overlaps the walnut
core of the bow. Joining the bow so tightly to the hull
results in a remarkably durable kayak.
We use a polyurethane glue that is waterproof and
unaffected by heat.
Some glues, such as yellow wood workers glue,
becomes soft in the heat of hanging out on your roof
rack. This allows the cedar to shift and can lead to
separation from the fiberglass.
