: Just got her done before the weather turned. I'm pretty pleased
: with her, and ready for a test paddle - assuming it doesn't ice
: back up over the weekend!

: Non-traditional construction, 8oz poly skin, oil based paint, bent
: ash coaming and other bits, 16'10" x 21" or so.
: Haven't weighed her yet, but the frame alone was right at 19lbs.

: Questions and comments welcome, of course!

Hi Dave,

Wish I could see the pix (work's computer has them blocked) but congrats on the boat. If it's anything like my Disko Bay (laughing loon) you'll love her :)

Maybe this week or next I'll finally have access at the new house. Been a slow process, slow DSL line (cable ends two houses away from the new place) then to find that the builder didn't install phone connections in all the rooms .
