Yes guys, I am a confirmed addict. I have two of those containers, currently storing eight kayaks, a trimaran, multiple windsurf boards and a plethora of sails. Over the last thirty years I have built 16 kayaks, of varying magnificence, a speedboat, a sailing dinghy, and my trimaran.

The containers, Mike, are temporary, until they rust into the ground a couple of generations from now.

Over the past two years I have had to concentrate on house renovations: two new bathrooms, roof repairs, 3 wood-stove installations (we converted), a reconstruction of my parents' living room, and a new woodshed. I also work for a living.

If anyone bothered to read that list they will have noticed that there were no boats built during that time and I have been going through serious withdrawals. (If you look at the image below you will get an idea of what that is like.)

At least I have been getting in some decent time on the water.

The only thing keeping me sane is this bulletin board (thanks Nick). I have been living vicariously through you guys for the past two years. All I ask is that you not be selfish, and keep posting photos of your projects. Consider it a mission of mercy.

'Though most of us may never meet, I consider each and every one of you a friend and comrade in arms.
