Re: I know this is not a bolger boat, but

Tom,

I saw a photograph of one in a recent issue of Woodenboat. If you do a
search on their forum you will find discussions with that builder.

It is a pretty boat, I wonder what ratio actually completed that boat
in a weekend, I am sure it is poossible. The difficult part for a lot
of people would be getting the mindset together to forge ahead
directly and build, avoiding too much time thinking and head
scratching, and/or gold plating.

The same four sheets of plywood would build a Windsprint.

I have been exploring boat building for several years. I have about
decided to build the weekend skiff, as described in the book Building
The Weekend Skiff by Richard Butz & John Montague. Has any one out
there built the boat? anything difficult? anything to take care with?
I have basic wood working skills and wood working tools.
