Actually, a family crisis is forcing me to move acros the country (West coast to Southern States). Imagine if someone told you to get your house ready to put on the market in three weeks. Been busy.

I did increase the size to 28 in wide by 24 ft long w/ large open cockpit for family flatwater paddling. I plotted the sections, but I can't start until after we re-settle. I may cut the forms for therapeutic benefit, since they'd be easy enough to move across country.

I feel a bit like I keep letting you guys down, but I'll take pictures and keep you posted when I get started.

If you notice periods of my abscence from the BBS, now you'll know why.

Those of you who are inclined to do so, keep my family and me in your prayers.
