David makes a good point:
Participation in the activities advocated by both magazines can lead to
divorce, cost legal disputes and certain questions of character asked within
one's community.

Wooden Boat Magazine.
I have since come to realize that for a certain sort of man, Wooden
Boat fills the same nitch that Playboy (in it's heyday,) did for
another sort.
I'm not sure if it's more embarrassing to have a complete set of the
latter, or the former.

Talk of WoodenBoat magazine reminds me:
I'm looking for a few back issues (not photocopies). If you have
#'s 4,5,6,7,11,12,25, would you be willing to sell me them at a
semi-reasonable price? I'm only 8 issues away from a complete set.
I'm building now for my daughter's inheritance . . . :-)

I have data convincingly disconfirming the Duhem-Quine hypothesis.

Nicely summed up Bill.
To me the big attraction of this boat over the Jinni Style boat is the
addition of an outboard. When the Wind drops on Tampa Bay in June, July and
August, you're not going to feel like rowing anything. Its just not an
option.
With any of these casizable boats, if your're going to have an engine, it
must centerline mounted, to keep it (maybe) from getting dunked. Note those
great side decks on the perfect skiff, wouldn't they float the boat pretty
high on its side? And all the spars stow inside, so no need for crutches on
your trailer.
Biggest drawback as a camp cruiser would seem to be the low sides, probably
for rowing. Might make her more susceptible to spray.

Hi,
Just had a browse in my back numbers of WoodenBoat. The results of the
Perfect Skiff contest are in WB #103, December 1991.
Somebody mentioned 'thinking aloud' on the list. If I may do so, I wonder
how good a single-handed camp cruiser the Perfect Skiff would make? It's
light enough to handle afloat and ashore, single handed; it's got a nice
clear bottom, for stretching out; a boom tent should be easy to arrange over
that cockpit; It should row pretty well when the wind drops; it has an
efficient-looking sailing rig and should get to windward nicely.
Worries are - that it might capsize easily with that light hull and tall
rig; the flat bottomed hull might not do too well in a chop when there's not
much wind.
Thoughts anyone? Also - Thoughts on any other lightweight Bolger designs
with camp-cruising potential (on semi-protected waters, of course)?
Bill

Somebody mentioned 'thinking aloud' on the list. If I may do so, I wonder
how good a single-handed camp cruiser the Perfect Skiff would make? It's
light enough to handle afloat and ashore, single handed; it's got a nice
clear bottom, for stretching out; a boom tent should be easy to arrange over
that cockpit; It should row pretty well when the wind drops; it has an
efficient-looking sailing rig and should get to windward nicely.
Worries are - that it might capsize easily with that light hull and tall
rig; the flat bottomed hull might not do too well in a chop when there's not
much wind.
Thoughts anyone? Also - Thoughts on any other lightweight Bolger designs
with camp-cruising potential (on semi-protected waters, of course)?
