I would love to but no boat at this time that has a
running OB. But let me know when you are going to be
at Roche and I'll enjoy meeting you after you clear
customs.
Just look for a tall woman walking a malamute. After
you clear.
or call me on my cel phone when you are at roche.

Early 2005, I think it was <G> Seriously, if I've been slow to
respond, I apologize. Life is hectic these days. We're still inching
forward with the sailing rig for our Goat Island Skiff. I completed
the tiller & stock this week (except for paint/varnish). We have all
3 spars tapered, and started turning them into 8-sided Wed. nite.
See you soon.

I'm not far from Roche Harbor and the aircraft that
leave the airport there east bound fly over where I
live.
I have not made up my mind about what to build but I
have a couple of small boat projects that may get done
first. Making a hard bottom for the Sea Eagle
inflatable does sound like a good idea then maybe give
it back to my Dad as a gift.

For myself I like to know where people are from. And
to see what boats are use where. Or planed to be use
there.
A lot of time where you live will help define what
kind of boat you have or build Like in the middle of
the US bass boats are all over. When you get to the
coasts it's very mixed. Down in the gulf coast you
find a lot of flat boats for running in the shallows.
Seeing how I'm from SE Alaska I look at boats that can
be used in rough water we have here. I also look to
see if it can run the inside passage.

Hi Kristine,
If you're six miles from Vancouver Island, I guess I'm about six
miles away from you. I live in Victoria and sail a Chebacco -- we
get over to the San Juans about twice a year in her. Whereabouts in
the islands are you?
I saw John K's reply with the Sucia rendezvous URL, but that
bypasses another small boat rendezvous you might be interested in.
Try going tohttp://www.members.shaw.ca/jamie.orr/and see both
rendezvous.
(Both gatherings are written up in the Nov/Dec issue of Small Craft
Advisor, which just came out. If you don't already subscribe, you
should try it, and not just for the article mentioned.)
Hope to see you on the water sometime!
Cheers,
Jamie Orr

No man will be a sailor who has contrivance enough to get himself into
jail; for being in a ship is being in a jail, with the chance of being

MDO can be good stuff but the thinnest I have found is 3/8". This is a little heavy for most small boats. However, if your plan calls for thicker planking or if your boat can stand the extra weight (a 3/8" hull will be 50% heavier than a 1/4" hull), MDO is an excellent choice.

MDO in many areas is cheaper then ACX and in some ways better then
marine. Working building houses I try to talk contractors into MDO
for smoth soffets and fake colums becouse it stays togather and
paints well. I have a scrap from Olympic Ply agenst to back fence
that has been through many many NW winters that is bair and still
solid.

There is a cross over point in time expended where you have to think
about quality materials. I approached the EP knowing I would be putting
min time in it and went with max cheep. In 2003 we built three Gulls.
They all came off the same mold but I am incapable of doing something
the same way three times running. Two were built with marine plywood
(Okoume from Edensaw) and one with AC from the local store. The AC
looked flawless and had no voids which is why I went with it. All the
boats had Dynel on the bottoms because of the rocky beaches here, one
had fiberglassed sides flowcoated before assembly. I used System Three
paint on the two marine plywood boats, exterior latex on the AC. We had
between 70-120 hrs in each boat. The intent of these boats was to use
them for 10-15 years for day excursions, camping. and exploring over the
border in Canada. I have had delamination in the AC since the first
year. The boat is still usable but with the time I have in it AC is a
very false economy. Many try to make AC acceptable by totally
encapsulating in epoxy. This is very time consuming and its still a sows
ear with fine stitching.
I swore then I would not use AC again, but I have since changed my tune
to consider it for "disposable" boats. If I can do it in less than 40
hrs and $200 then it might be acceptable.

I swore then I would not use AC again, but I have since changed my tune

Harry J you know that is a good way to look at it too.
But you never know I've seen some "temp" fixes that
have lasted 6 to 10 years.
There is a few good things that can be said for
building a quick and dirty boat. 20 to 60 hours in the
shop and 200 hours on the water sounds better then
1200 hours in the shop and NO hours on the water.
Running an RC boat on the lake is not the same as
being in one and enjoying the lake or sound!

He had some comments about about a month and a half ago, and posted a
lot of photos of Le Cabotin the French Canadian "Loose Moose" He is
getting close, you or I would probably have launched by now but he is
holding to his usual very high standards of construction. There are some
photos in Bolger and Bolger 2 but I don't think they are recent.
How are you dong East Coast boy. I am fully retired now, still thinking
of a Tennessee. HQ has a list of things to get done first and there is
the little matter of the Pearson Triton that has appeared in the yard. I
built a Elegant Punt for it using staples, PL Premium tube glue, A/C
plywood, free paint except for the interior which cost $2 when K mart
closed. I know I swore never to use A/C again but I look at this as a
disposable boat, if I get more than two seasons out of it I will have
exceeded expectations. At $60 and 20 hrs labor, 2 years is fine.
