Thanx RodB, Not the first time I have seen it but once is not enough.
Here is a little on the pianist Doug Smith.

Thanx again to all the WBFers for the responses.
I left out my motives in the OP. The model belongs to a good customer. Recently purchased at auction. These nice people are always generous to us...
Thanx for the link. cool
I noticed that the brass nameplate on the models available are "Norske Love 1643 "
Yet the history lists 1765 Nyolm Shipyard. It appears that 9 or 10 boats shared the...
I failed to look closely at the pic. Apparently it depicts a battle scene. Any background?
Thanx Woxbox, I think I'll pass on the restore. I doubt I could rig the Catalina 22 that I crewed on in Jr. High. Heck if it took more than a couple of days it would be cheaper to order this one....
You guys are great! I knew I could count on ya.
I'll agree the rigging is tattered. I think she sailed off the edge of the earth (counter top) . There is evidence of mish mash repairs.
I did not...
Thanx for looking. Any info would be appreciated.

I went with "I will" in the pole but I did last Thursday.
I may be the target audience, I have not voted in 15 +- years. Guess I have not been PO'd enough. Guys like Mitt and Rick and Rick have been...
I thought we could use a bilge freshener.
Lots of words They seem passionate about. It is a little red dirt but thats OK OKBY:D

Seems to work well. I did a kayak from these folks. Worked out right and they have bigger boats too.

Of course this is old news to most guys on here....
1/8" circ saw rips may not be uniform enough for sweet bending.
I tried them and did not like them. Never thought I'd miss the hose but as soon as it was gone I realized how much I wanted it back. Seems I was doing a bunch of hose tricks without thinking about...
I may have bought that in 1979 but I grew out of it. Hell I lost all my Ted tapes too.
Glen beat me to it.
Hank got a pretty good bump on the head. He needs to be pitied now, or perhaps institutionalized.
I am sorry Paul, those look like great river boats. I'll expect you will post fish pics.
Glen, I live in San Antonio. Most of my pics come from the San Marcos. Some are from the upper Guad around...
Dayum Larks, I teared up worse than at the end of that School of Rock movie.
I do love to see kids have the passion for music. I'm just proud my kids listen to more than 1 radio station.
oops, I guess you are asking about the woody. She is a Selway Fisher Esk 442 cm. I think they call it 15.5 foot. I threw out the plans after the hull was done. Hope they don't mind how I did the deck.
Well Kayak fishing of course. Seems every time I use "it" on here it causes confusion. This time I wanted it to be fun.:eek:
I see you bought a couple SOT's. Not my choice but just get out and have some fun. The wife and I do it all the time. In the river as oft as possible. WE use our plastics most of the time but...
Fine set of boats. You must be a great teacher.Y>
OOps MY bad, you are the OP, Sorry. Did not intend to be a horse's A.
Here is how I used it. Thru holes in this kayak were done with parts of a broken fishing pole. Holes were not perfect so I...
Post # 9 and you have already lost track of the OP's question?
Chalk line chalk is what we are talking about. I'll try to find a pic and a more detailed explanation.
I used it to make black. No problems at all.
There is good advice on this thread. Skip the tape and use some bias cut strips. I can't tell how big your part is but I have Vac bagged small parts with a seal a meal....
No no never try to put the varnish before the epoxy.
I did not use a bead and cove so I was able to play willie nillie with the strips.
I do now understand the purpose of the inner keel, I have...
Mrx thanx for sharing your build. You are getting good advise from guys with more experience than I so I won't have much to add. A couple times I wanted to jump in but Canoez covered it before I...
You will get good advice here on the restore.
If I were you I would take the paperwork you have to the Texas Parks and Wildlife office and see what you are in for on registration. It can be a...
Titebond II works great for me. I did a few accidental test breaks and the glue always held.
Here is a tip I stole from a buddy. Strip guide for the glue bottle.

You guys run short of fun here and there. Hope this helps.
