		<description><![CDATA[When it comes time to pick the epoxy to cover your beautiful hand built kayak with, a common question that is well worth asking is which epoxy holds up best?

		<description><![CDATA[Kayaks are probably the most custom tailored of any boats. In fact, if you&#8217;re building a traditional skin-on-frame kayak, then the dimensions are directly based on your size. While other kayak designs aren&#8217;t quite that customized, when it comes to kayaks size does matter. In this article, I&#8217;m going to focus on the volume of the [...]]]></description>

So in this article, I am going to talk more about general styles of kayaks that you might come across if you&#8217;re out looking around.
