Frej – Bernard Pellegrin

Frej – Bernard Pellegrin

A new and beautifully constructed Frej in the waters around Guadeloupe:

"Hi Bjorn, That's it, I've been sailing with my new Kayak for 2 months now. It is perfect, 16 kg, lively, very seaworthy, fast.

It corresponds exactly to what I wanted to do with it.

I don't want any more.

No difficulties encountered during the construction, the plans are perfect, and your site is an example of sharing knowledge and experience.

It is very rare and should be reported

Thank you,
Bernard PELLEGRIN"

"Hej Björn.

Vinterns lilla hobbyprojekt närmar sig slutet.

Bestämde mig i ett tidigt skede för att måla kajaken, då jag insåg att jag var nybörjare på varje enskilt moment.

Du borde vara tydligare med att byggandet är starkt beroendeframkallande.

Har siktet mot en kanotyawl till nästa vinter. Vi får väl se. 

Tack för en lärorik och inspirerande hemsida.

Nanoq – Jan Sörfeldt

Nanoq – Jan Sörfeldt

"Hej Björn!

Vinterns bygge av Nanoq är nu helt klart. Premiärturen är avklarad till belåtenhet. 

Första intrycken är som jag minns från en provtur förra året. Jämfört med Frej är Nanoq initialt lite vingligare men minst lika slutstabil. Där Frej utan skädda vänder på en femöring behöver Nanoq aningens hjälp på traven. Jag tycker de svarar lika på kantning och tyngdpunktsförskjutning. Helt klart en mycket trevlig bekantskap. Vi blir nog riktigt goda vänner ����.

Hela bygget har kämpat emot på oväntade sätt så det är tur att detta inte var mitt första bygge. En rak och vacker kajak blev det till slut, trots många fartgupp längs vägen. 

Tack för en vacker och ändamålsenlig design. Översänder några bilder. För den som vill veta mer finns hela bygget på https://bygglust.wordpress.com/category/nanoq"

Frej – Mats Lövsund

Sjösatt nyligen: en väldigt snygg kopparfärgad Frej.

"Hej Björn

Sjösatte kajaken idag, fungerar riktigt bra!!

Hur ser du på flytläget, borde jag flytta sitsen lite längre fram? Totalvikt ca 105-110 kilo på bilden i vatten.

Vikten på kajaken är låga 15 kilo. Litar inte på min våg längre, den visade 14,7, och det låter för lätt för å va sant. 

Stefan som byggt Panthera sjösatte samtidigt, var också mycket nöjd! 

Mvh
Mats"
