I am building a Yostwerks Sea Tour 17EXP for myself but I have a great delima. What should I build for a smaller paddler say 5'5" and 125lbs with minimal paddeling experiance? I am questioning the displacement weight being enough for the boat to track properly. I was thinking along the lines of a Sea Tour 15EXP or a Sea Bee.I also have the plans for a Kudzu Craft / Curlew.

What are your thoughts and suggestions???

It seems like you're interested in "small paddlers." Small paddlers could refer to individuals who engage in various paddle sports or activities, but who are of smaller stature or younger in age. Paddle sports include activities like kayaking, canoeing, stand-up paddle for sale boarding (SUP), and more.
