Re: Aluminum Barrelback
Hi Kevin,
does that mean that marine aluminium alloys are hard to stretch and shrink?
I saw some 60ft al sailing wessel and they were using english wheel for forming the hull.

Re: 21' Albert-E
Its a pitty nobody documented Albert E build on the forum.
Maybe this design is not popular as the inner space is not so big.
But lines of this boat are really neat.
Especially that one build by Ernest Demaray looks lovely.

Re: Best substitution for Honduras Mahogany
You all forget about splendid american wood known as Black Locust or Robinia Pseudoacacia.
French boatbuilders really love it, rot resistent, local and available without damaging rain forrests.

Re: Barrelbacked Overniter Build in UK
I feel your pain, so many possibilities, each has its advantages and disadvantages. Althoug i bought house with garage last year, only now i realized that nothing bigger then Flying Saucer will be hard to squeeze in. Its hard to decide which way to go. Wood or aluminium, trailerable or something big...

I guess resistence stems from old prejudices. Welders are evrywhere, i guess main problem is lack of plans...
