By the way John, thanks again for the strip ripping party.

Greg

: Arizona Game & Fish have approached me about doing a TV program on
: building a wooden boat. As a result, we had four folks at the house
: yesterday ripping strips and setting up the strongback for a King. The
: group will be building a Spring Run, a Silver, and two Kings. None of us,
: however, are willing to build fast enough to have the boat finished before
: the filming needs to conclude. I've got to admit that this is an original
: excuse & I am starting #3 well ahead of schedule - the backyard will
: get finished some day!

: Of course, since the show normally features hunting, fishing, and wildlife,
: we're going to have some on-water footage looking at birds... any excuse
: to get boats on the water. Anyway, I'm looking for any other Phoenix area
: builders that have a finished boat you'd like to include in on-water
: shots. I'm aware of Greg Morse's Coho, Matt Pennington's Return, my Return
: & Morris SOF. Does anyone have names or contact info for others?

: Any references would be appreciated.

: jrs
