: I see your point. I was thinking about the aluminum wrap around attachments
: on Toms site. That and either what niven suggested or boiling the pvc to
: crimp the ends. I need to buy a piece of PVC for my "steam box"
: so I can make a coaming, so I will use that as an experiment on what can
: be done with pvc. I've also made a pvc boat cart, so I know you can bolt
: it to an extent.
: This is normally what I do. I'm building a wooden yost this winter. IF this
: prodgect goes anywhere it wont be until spring anyway.
: I am mostly curious of previous successes or massive failures.
: thanks for the info,
: Scott

The wood framed Tom Yost boats are pretty quick to build. Hey I'm slow and it took me I think 3 weeks.
