Maybe tommorrow (after cutting the grass :rolleyes: ) I can start to do a little clean up on it and move on.

Looking great Chad!

I knew there was a reason that you've been jabbing at me to get back on the boat. ;)

Can't wait to see more.

That is a salty looking little ride. What is it?

It is my plywood weekender. I hope when it is done to either start a full sized Friendship or a Melonseed.

Very nice Chad, how long have you been working on it?

I've lost count of how long I've been working on it. Kinda dragging my feet. Even built a canoe since I started this.

When it is done you ought to use your spare time to enjoy it. Lifes to short to be constantly working on projects. I know - I have that problem.

Sunday, after cutting the grass :rolleyes: , I drilled the hole for the bowsprit (don't ask) and built the hatch for the front opening. Tonight if things work out I will start putting epoxy on the top and start looking at the rudder.

I will probably make the rudder from mahgony. I've got a slab of it that would be perfect.
