: George Dyson has both (anyway, Dacron is a brand of polyester), but in 10 and
: 15oz, as I recall.

Thanks David. G. Dyson was next on my list to call. I think 10 oz will do.

: Instead of clothes pins, saw rings from a 2" PVC pipe, and then slit the
: rings. Plenty of power for thin ribs like yours.

Ha! Talk about thinking alike! I just got through cutting up a bunch. I'll see how they work. One of the tricky problems in this project is getting a clamp into the tight spaces between stringers at the bow and stern. These should handle that ok.

: Hurry up and show us the deck!

I'll be happy just to get the hull done! The method of deck construction is still being formed in my mind.
