This will be a fun thread to watch. Looking forward to progress photos. Your uncle was a wonderful designer! I really like what he did with Jerry Montgomery (even if they're plastic boats).

Thank you Ed, Jerry's living up in the Bay area now. His boats are still being built today. If you check my web site out, you will see a link to Montgomery Boats. The 40' EEC will be fun to build. Aloha Michael.......................
