Charles,

Your boat is extraordinary in its presentation. The overall feeling of a wooden boat is very powerful in the manner in which you have chosen the color and pacing of the strips. I wish the original photos were in front of me so I could read the hull form a little better.

This boat feels like the Chatham, the new Greenland style machine from Necky that I saw at this summer's Outdoor Retail Show. Is it connected to the design study process for that boat?
