Re: re Australian Amateur Boatbuilding Magazine & Designs.
It is pretty crude, but the others have pointed out that it is a
good source for materials etc, which I had not realized.
I don't mind the enthusiastic amateurs who put their projects in the
magazine, but I do hate the commercial design rip-off merchants who
are climbing on the Bolger bandwagon, and there seems to be plenty
of that in there. The latest "Tennessee" has introduced features
which go against all Bolgers design philosophy behind the sharpie
cruisers, and possibly less safe boats being pushed on the masses
by "experts".

in all respects.I hope that the majority of the designs featured are
by amateurs because no proffessional naval architect could take
pride in these poor renderings(Ripoffs) of Phil Bolger's
designs.Even Bolger's worst looking designs have something about
them that makes them OK.
