Re: [bolger] Digest Number 1898
Vince,
last year, I did a detailed estimate for the Saloon Launch :-) extended
3' and with a head, portapotti and basic galley structure (existing
camping gear for equipment).
I wanted a sound but cheap boat that would last ten years, so I used
AruacoPly, poly resin, and chopped matt, sith epoxy for adhesive and
cloth over the matt below the W.L. Paint was marine grade, and no power
or controls were included as I have that already. Total was near $1800.
A Sneakeasy to the same standard was under $800. I am a good scrounger,
so I could likely better those, but I estimated for all new mat'l at retail.
Cheers/The Fader

(Thanks Vince)
Nice boat but what struck me was his est of the total building cost.
The question came to mind, about how much would it cost to build a
Cabin Clam Skiff, a Tennessee, Minnesota, or a Wyoming or others??
