I'm currently working on three Gullimots, two are 18 ft and 1 is 17 foot, give or take,but who's counting. In the past I've built, um... two cape charles, one mill creek, three striped canoes (don't have any oftem, gave them as Christmas gifts) and am planning on one more Gullimot, and the weekender off the stevproj.com pages. I can't shake this, feeling. I've got to build more boats. My blood is thin, man, I'm starting to getttt the shaaaakes. I've got to go out to the shop and build some more. Good thing I'm a troll and have access to some good paddling water.Looking for other paddler/builders in the Michigan thumb area to converse/comiserate with. Any out there?
