Hi Bill,
Thanks for the offer! The plans come with some nice detail on how to cut and sew the sail, etc. but getting the "stuff" to put it together and prices can be on the high side over here. I will likely be asking for some leads on where to get a sail made or where the material can be purchased. I'm tending to believe it might be better to send the cloth pattern to a sail maker. I'm sure all the other bits can be built or purchased locally. I already have the mast, can easily make the curved boom and buy the pulleys and other fittings.
Getting excited this morning, the canoe is on the truck and we are headed out for a week of fishing and messing around at a beach house up north. Lots of kayaks, fishing skiffs and a couple surfboards. Hope the fish co-operate.
Now that I know how to post a link, I'll take some shots and share them when we get back.
Mahalo,
Ted
