: Here it is done - finally!
: With the exception of the decklines. What a joy to paddle. Light, fast and
: tracks like a train. Absolutly minimal, minimal corrective strokes are
: required. It is a bear to turn but where we paddle thats not an issue. The
: bow design works splendid. Just when you think its going to go under it
: pops up like a duck. I would guess at around 4 to 4.5 knots. Need to time
: it next time.

: Best regards,

: Terry

Very Nice Terry! Sounds like it'll be a well loved boat. Paddle on.
