Thanks to all that posted a response. With the exception of George's rude comments re my building abilities, all were very productive. I have been holding my tounge but no longer can keep silent about George's comment about the cost of materials. He pointed out that I was dreaming if I thought I could get the cost of materials out of my boat, and then went on to compare I to someone building a car from parts. What BUNK! Is this to say that Ford doesn't hope to get the cost of the materials used in a car back out of it. Is this to say that Dagger or Perception won't get the cost of their materials out of a boat? This comment made no sense. Maybe it was just George, as usual, trying to prove that he is ALWAYS right and everyone else is ALWAYS wrong. If my memory serves me right, in a previous thread, George promised not to post here any more. Promises, promises...

Anyway, I have a nibble on my boat and will keep you all posted as to the progress. One more question. How does one ship a full boat? I assume build a crate and freight it. Again thanks for comments. Paul
