Although far from complete I could wait no further and launched the Cirrus on Saturday afternoon. First of course we had to christen the boat with home brew bottled Saturday morning. (Standing with me is my paddling buddy who is also a fisheries officer, he may be sending me a warning regarding deliterious substances entering fish habitat!).

So far the boat is ~40#, magnetic hatches including a day hatch, carbon combing. Still to do: sanding of deck and hull, installing bungies and perimeter line, varnishing, carve GP.

The stitching software is really meant for panoramas but works pretty well for this purpose.
