: Thank you to the people who have spoke with some nice comments, I
: will look into some of your suggestions and I will drop you an
: e-mail Rick. As for the other comments, yes I know what I am
: getting into. Yes I know that it take roughly 200-400 hours to
: build a boat, takes longer then that to do a complete reno on an
: old house. But I just want to point out that everybody is
: assuming that I have no wood working experience, no time to
: dedicate to building the boats and building the boats one at a
: time. For what I thought was a welcoming group there certainly a
: lot of negative comments.

Btw, I can't comment directly on Nick's designs, I've not built one of his so am not qualified to do that. But any help you feel you need with this project please feel free to ask me directly via Email if you'd like, if you don't feel like asking here. I'm always happy to help.
