: what a party...thy musta spent 20-30 grand but definately not my taste!
Wow. That IS quite a party.
: I finally finished the bluefin and tried it...I liked it, paddles fast and
: with out fuss, rolls great (for me a Novice roller) and has good secondary
: stability. I am happy with the lines of this stitch and glue boat, looks
: good to my eye. Have to relocate the bulkheads for more storage space and
: maybe a day hatch.
It looks great, Eric! I'm looking forward to hearing reviews from other paddlers, but I'm definitely watching this new boat of yours. I do like the idea of the day hatch.
: The detail is veneer edgebanding cut into triangles and ironed on...birch and
: walnut. I did an Osprey inlay on the deck.
The trim gives it an especially nice appearance among S&G boats. I'll have to keep that in mind when I (finally) build. At first glance, it looked like a stripper.
Hey, any change you can post some more, larger, and detail pics on your site or somewhere? I'd like to have a closer look. Any other profile views would be great too (side, top, front, rear) - even from your computer design. The only one I've seen is the isometric rendering, and the pic you just posted here.
