: I am now looking at building a strip built Petrel under the guidance of a
: neighbor who is a skilled craftsman/carpenter/woodworker. It looks like a
: good bet for my weight and it's 17 feet! Perhaps it's not impossible for
: someone my size to build a 17 footer from a kit.

With their help it will absolutely fly along. This is how I built my first boat. You are going to love the journey and the boat!
