Thanks Bill, and congrats on the new puppy. I'm going to customize parts of it, such as the fittings for the deck lines and bungie cords - will make those out of maple to contrast with the Sapele, and will do the hidden hatch system as well.

I would have liked to do a hybrid boat, but I thought that this would be good as a first boat - they say you never end up with just one... I've also been reading up on skin on frame, and may make one of those next, especially given that they're much less expensive in terms of cost, and use some nice woodworking techniques such as steam bending.
