Welcome, Moe.

Will you be running the Torpedo on Lake Simcoe? You can hit some waves out there!

(I'll wave to you as I scream through Barrie on the way to the cottage this weekend!)

I have had my Lo Voltage plans for a few years, but I have not started building it yet.

(I keep going back and forth between the Lo Voltage and the Whitehall ... not to mention my annual unexpected maintenance on the Monaco)

Thanks
Actually I will be running it on Lake of Bays.... We have a cottage up there.
How long did it take you to build Monaco ?

Moe.

Lake of Bays is beautiful. I used to spend a lot of time there. My sister in law had a cottage near Glenmount/Norway Point.

I had the Monaco out there last summer... We were visiting friends near Baysville. The weather was great, so I could not resist taking "the long way home" by doing a run around Bigwin Island.

I spent about two years building the Monaco. Working at my own pace. But a boat is never "done"... you just start using it while you continue working on it. ;-)
