That is nice Kens

Steveh41 maybe the answer to my plea he is close and he does have some scraps and you know that the bigger the boat the bigger the scraps so I may be able to repair on the inexpensive. Thanks all. What a great community. On another note I have a jig that is used for making the cutout for an Alpha II...

Today I hit the dock so hard, well my buddy did , that I have been holed a nice 6x6 gaping hole port side forward didn't bust any frames but now I wished I had saved some of those scrap pieces. 3/8 hydrotech does not hold up well to hitting the corner of the dock. Any CA builder out there has a scra...

I want to keep this thread alive just so some of the not yet launched builders have an idea of what they might be in for. At the build stage if you get it good now, down the line maintenance is a breeze, however if you think you will get to it later think again. I did not sand some areas in the cock...

If you reseal properly it is still good go go

Great thread kinda know what to expect even if one has go extrapolate never the less without hijacking I wish I could turn my boat inside out ,the outside has suffered from California sunshine for five years.Now it is rfinish time,but by the same token I have used the hell out of her.Once again good...

Just beautiful Please take time an hurry up I so much appreciate your build and I understand only too well how much thought
and effort it takes on this part of the build. Nice work Carl

In retrospect one of the nicest compliment ever received on my boat building was from you at G4 you looked at my pics with much interest and said they were impressive, coming from the Queen, I look back now and think it must have been good.You are one busy lady all the of your builds are top tip top...

Warms my heart great fishing memories you'll treasure wished my dad had taught me my mom did and that was special cause she didn't know anything about fishing still hooked like your son will be in years to come.

Welcome , I think you should start building your own and get all the help you need here at least get questions answered and all kinds of support

Bill you know , I hurt myself doing something stupid my mom scolded me and hugged me all at once I never did understand the breadth of love which could spank and hug simultaneously That is what I could do to you my friend get well. The boat is looking great. lauren really did a great job

the moisture level will fluctuate in all woods it all depends on the current exposure

Kens bonita is great table fare especially if its iced immediately they tend to get mushy if left in the gunny sack too long. I do also have a working boat and hope to keep it in reasonable condition. and gap988 I get it with that link but I will bet they do not have the 99% perspiration nor the 1% ...

If you saw my boat now you wouldn't believe the variegated paint scheme. I have hit the docks so often and so hard that I have had to repair the rash. The damage to one area on port side bow, deformed the plywood but the glass did prevent abrasion. I ground out about an 8in circle buttered in a scar...

Glen made it possible for me to realize a childhood dream. by the time I was ready to build a boat most plans had just lofting details and I thought I would have to find classes for me to understand this stuff. I happened upon this site and the simplicity of not having to loft made this dream a poss...
