OK, so I've been listening (reading) in on this board for about a month after reading a blurb on CLC in a mag. I received my plans for a Ches16lt last week and went down to the Bluff Point this weekend. Man, am I inspired! I can't wait to get started because after what I saw this weekend, I've got projects for a lifetime. The red hulled Sea Spirit (I think) with the stripped deck inspired feelings in me usually reserved for the opposite sex! I need to find me some plans for that one! And the variety of strippers and sof boats that I saw have me weak in the knees. Not to mention the paddling skills of their owners. I think you guys even impressed my dad (and definately my unruly 2 year old son who keeps saying "where are the pretty boats, daddy?").

Thanks for the gathering, folks, and thanks for the enthusiasm you all generate. When I'm looking for help living up to the awesome standards I saw at the gathering, I know where to come. Thanks again!
