Dear Manager

I bought last 06-07-05 the plans and patterns for the Kayak, number 480. Now I am finished, I am sending some construction photos. I didn't use nails or screws, I used only epoxy, with a lot of clamps and washer blocks. I covered only the bottom with mat and polyester resin.

I use the Kayak to paddle with my son. It is very good and has a lot of space. I would like you to put these photos in Customer Photos. I am sending these together with an order form to buy the Book of Boat Designs because I intend to choose a new design to build.

The Kayak was the first boat that I have built, I am an amateur, I am a dentist. The Glen-L designs are very good, objective and easy to understand.

Best regards
Louis Carl da Silva Souza
