In Response To: George's point is valid (Tom Kurth)

: I won't comment on whether George missed the point or not, but his point is
: valid if the project were done as a true assembly line. On an assembly
: line one person or team performs the same function time after time and
: would not develop the multiplle skills needed to complete a boat on
: his/their own. "If the scouts work in teams moving along with their
: boats," the project would not be an assembly line. A semantic issue
: but nevertheless valid. Tom

Ha! Well, if we're splitting hairs :-) I was going by Paul's original post which stated:

"Once the first hull is done you pop it off the forms and configure the deck while another scout, or group of scouts, makes a hull on the forms."

Guess we should have used another term.
