A longer one showing my friends Ken and Juan Carlos and the dog Sasha tearing up my anchorage. Showing how well she planes. The first hard turn you can hear it cavitate, but it was a real buttonhook of a turn.

Enjoy. Thanks to all on this fourum without your input and knowledge I may not have done as well as I did. So thank you all who contribute here.

Here is a photo of the boat.

How did this get a made a Sticky? Did I do it accidentally somehow? Not my intention. If I did how do I undo it?

That knoll is my patio. That is the cove I live alongside.
I will post some more vids today.

In the meantime here are some photos of the boat getting the interior fitted out.

You can read about Paul's design in issue # 173 of Woodenboat. I did and that is what inspired me. This skiff is light, planes quickly, handles well and is easy to build.

Here is one with me at the controls. You will hear cavitation so we lowered the motor by one inch and that took care of it. But I do like the way she trims out.

In this one Ken is at the controls and we tilted the motor to stop the cavitation that is why the nose is so high.
