Hi Ross,

Thanks, that upturned bow really stiffened the deck and made for a bit of a struggle to get the two halves of the boat together.

Cutting the panels for #2 & #3 today, both cape charles'. I'll get started on a stripper as soon as we get settled in our new place, I've allready got the forms made for a Georgian Bay.

> Completely envious of your paddling locale,

You can see from the pic how close we are to the water, We've been renting the house from the inlaws at a greatly reduced price, they've just sold it tho, so we'll be moving further away from the water to our own place. I'm gonna miss the veiw and the short easy trips to the water, Oh well it was great while it lasted.
