You may not remember me but I've finally put my boat in the water. It's a S&G of my own design made with the hulls software. I designed it to be stable, fast and haul alot of gear and not need a rudder. After alot of self doubt it actually works! it tracks great is easy to turn when leaned and is very neutral in the wind. I can't believe it. I never would have even started if it wasn't for the generous folks on this board. It was not easy building my first boat without instructions but it was worth it. I still need to do hatches and glue in the bulkheads, coaming, and general cockpit finishing but at least now I know it will be worth it. Thanks to all of you who share your knowlege and time.
