: My "triple swoop" on my Guillemot was inspired by Eric Schade's
: Atlantic...but the similarities end there. At any rate, imitation is the
: sincerest form of flattery!!

: Pete's is also symmetrical, where Nick's is asymmetrical. I like how the
: stain came through on his recycled deck boards.

: I don't think it had the tiny accent strips Joe uses. They really catch my
: eye. And very few people can match Joe's level of detail, and finish! Oh,
: wow, his finishes! I don't even try. I'm too hard on my boats anyway. :)

Hi Shawn,
That was also my conclusion on Joe's attention to detail. I could never come close so I have been striving for the zen simple approach on my King. These were shot today, progress is slow but steady.
