Has any body got an idea of how much linear measyrement of strips that are required for the various strip built boats that are sold here please. I have not been able to work out how many and how much to machine up or each boat prior to deciding which one to build.
The kit descriptions include the linear feet for each design. Basically, 1000 linear feet of 3/4" material will give you plenty for a 17' kayak. 1/3 the material for just the deck. Remember, add the bead stock to your figuring- 3/4" EXPOSED.

Go to Product Catalog/Boat Plans/Strip Planked Designs and select a boat.
Scroll down and select Materials List for Plans Builders.
There you will see listed the total feet in strips needed.

Forget the 1/3 for the deck- go with the 'book'
