Launching of the Guillemot Expedition Single "Red King" took place on 9 March after a fairly long build. I am not sure if there is a 'Slow Boatbuilding Movement' but this one would probably qualify. First work started in Dec 2012. The process has been very enjoyable and 'therapeutic'. Many thanks to Nick for a terrific design and to all on the forum who have assisted with many aspects: the 'Search all Forums' tab has had a workout! First impressions have been very positive and only reinforced in a long paddle yesterday. Weight came in at 22kg - a bit heavier than I had hoped , but there is 19ft of boat there. The next project is a new workbench with some paddling to enjoy the 'finished product'.
