You're off to a great start. There are many frame kits left since Alan retired.

:shock: I see more than a Boat Frame!

Wow, nice score on the frames. I thought all the frames were sold out. Especially on the super popular boats like the Squirt. Do any of you guys know what other kits are left?

Welcome aboard.
That garage door floor is way too clean, and is that tile or epoxy paint? Who does that?

BTW, here is a link to a blog of Art Atkinson's Squirt build. I sure it will give you ideas and pointers.

Don't get too excited--we haven't had Squirt frame kits for many years! We only have two left--Dragonfly & Honker:

Did the plans & instructions come with the kit? That will give you all the building details...
