: Well, I finally got the start of a website up to detail some of the progress
: I've made building the Cirrus (for me) and a Merganser 16 (for Barb).

Beautiful boats! I have been working on my first-ever boat project lately. Spent the past few days cutting and preparing a pile of parts, trying to get them just so. I was dinking around yesterday afternoon, and suddenly I was looking at a boat hull! Amazing how that works...

I reckon it's no big deal to a lot of the experienced hands on this board, but it was a huge event for yours truly. It is one of the prettiest sights I have ever seen.

I will finish these boats out in plywood since I want to get on the water with them asap. But the next boat will have to involve strips in one way or another.

Cheers,
Kurt
