In Response To: Re: Hello, and a question *PIC* (Etienne Muller)
If you go for the shearwater, I would suggest go for the 17ft hybrid. It is an attractive boat, performs well and will give you the opportunity to get into some stripping as you do the deck.
Beautiful work , Et, but isn't a skeg boat a challenging first build?
(And, a lot of the designs out there do need a skeg to perform properly, especially in the hands of a non-expert paddler , IMO. I'm thinking of the occasion when Leon Somme told me that a skeg wasn't necessary on a Romany if the paddler had 'good skills'.)
