I'm enjoying following your log with my eyes, and look forward one day to doing so with my hands! Not likely in our lifetime, you have already forgotten more about boatbuilding than I will EVER know.

I think you're right. I checked a few traditional wood-boat site and bright means varished. I'll edit my original post. Any other nomenclature that doesn't seem right, please let me know. Thanks.

However, that being said, I seriously contemplated the hull in black and the deck clear strips. It seemed to be the best of both worlds - black where most deep scratches happen and clear to show wood patterns. However, to be quite truthful, I love Black Kayaks...as the first one I saw was the "stealth boat" Bill Whitcomb built (mentioned on Bjorn's site) built for Cheri Perry and have wanted one ever since. So, maybe it will be a wood over black boat next time, but this time its painted for me!! Scott As this is my Black Pearl – I should just say painted and leave it at that, right?
