    Our project boat has a name !

    Hi,

    I've been here lurking and asking woodworking / rigging questions for work on our boat. This summer we finally decided on a name, had it measured for tonnage, and officially registered. Murielle has moved our website under the boats name: www.mimijane.ca

    We took a few pictures before the snow comes and it reflects the current state ( http://mimijane.ca/a-few-updated-views-of-mimi-jane )

    I like this one with the wide angle lens.

    Cheers,
    Mark

      Any single boat project will always expand to encompass the set of all possible boat projects.

      Life is short. Go boating now!

              Wow, that’s a big project. And Murielle designed her, too! Fantastic.

                  Hi ,

                  Yea, Murielle designed and pretty much built the boat by herself... I'm weekend hired help. We did look for a suitable design, but really couldn't find anything that made our hearts skip a beat (which we figure is the single most important criteria when looking for a boat). It's based on very traditional lines and well know scantlings, it's not like designing a high speed carbon fiber catamaran.

                  J - having a good location inspires during the build process. Your timber frame shop is just right. It is a bit big.... in hindsight... lol

                  Thanks for the nice comments,
