After 5 months of construction, my little Clancy skiff is done and ready to hit the water! I set up the rig in front of the garage this afternoon and everything is exactly the way it should be. Too bad a storm is coming tonight or else I'd be headed to the nearest water tomorrow morning.

Thanks guys :D This is my first boat and I'm eager to get her in the water. I'll post more pictures of her under sail (or turned turtle) ;)

"Too bad a storm is coming tonight or else I'd be headed to the nearest water tomorrow morning."

... bad luck for the delay of her sea trial. I hope she goes well when you get her on the water.

What is her name?

Warren.

I'm leaning toward "Smartypants" which is sort of a reflection of my personality. If anything it will make a great flag ;)

other names on the short list which seem to fit the boat:
Tweety
Peewee
