In Response To: Materials, Please Help! (Travis)

I built a Coho and opted not to do my deck rigging per their method. Instead I used a version of what CLC recommends (see link). Easy, fast, cheap,one hole in the boat per piece, and no snags - very low profile. Another plus is you can do them in several colors (though I used black).

If you do end up doing it that way, give me a shout, I can give you some of the pointers I fighured out.

BTW, I agree that you actually have more time than you think. Don't get too far ahead of yourself. And, have fun.
