I am considering building a KR2S "Super" due to its low cost and easy build process. I was wondering if anyone had attempted to make the boat frame out of carbon fiber tubes and if it would have any weight savings benefit. I was really wondering about building the KR2S Super out of as much cf as possible due to increased strenght and reduced weight. I know the cost will be more but I feel it would justify the better constructed airframe. Thanks, JT
