      I made a 3D printer more or less specially to print kayaks. I printed up to now 7 kayak prototypes. I use a 1.8mm nozzle and 0.6mm Layer height. We have to add a layer of fibre glass to reach the final stiffness.

      I print in spiral vase mode and it take around 2 days to print a 280cm kayak. Its printed in 3 segments plus nose and stern.

      More infos on our blog:

      (there is also the link to the CAD-Data)

      The printer has the following specs:
      -printvolume: 1000x550x1100mm3
      -footprint 1170x770mm2(europalett)
      -1.75mm DualHotend automated selectable for two colours or soluble material
      -Duet Mainboard 6HC and Toolboards
      -CAN-Connection to printhead – to reduce cabeling
      -closed housing

      -mostly internal cabeling
      -1500W heated bed made of 10mm Aluminium with 5mm glass
      -z-axis geared 5:1(but belt driven – in my opinion ok for large format
      -width can easily reduced(removing some external parts) to standard 80x200cm roomdoors
      -Hermera Extruder – open to other products
      -Mosquito Hotend
      -Big Hotends with up to 1.8mm Nozzle size for high layer heights
      -Corexy
