Posted this in the wrong tread first... sorry about that..

Hi ya all.

I just ordered the plans for the Klondike in fiberglass....
Am still on the planning and reviewing stage of this build.
I am from Norway, working as an electronic engineer on large cruise ships..
35 yo... and so on...

If I decide to go ahead with this build, I guess that you guys here will hear a lot from me..

Excellent! We would LOVE to have a builder here building the Klondike.

Of course, you DO know that this will be a 5 year project or so. The Klondike is a BIG boat! So if you're going to be a part of this forum during the building process, we'll get to communicate a lot!

Welcome aboard.

Hi there.
I know that this is not a project to take on if I want a boat tomorrow....
Do you know anyone who have built the Klondyke, that I could contact for some inputs?

Welcome to you. Always good to hear from people outside of the US building boats.

Welcome.

There are 2 Klondykes listed in the Project Registry. I haven't seen them on the Forum. But, there are e-mail addresses.

Don't let Dave scare you...if you want to build in six months,go right ahead!!! :shock: :wink:

Just a humorous welcome,it will be a big,long time project....take your time & do a great job.
