Thanks for the encouragement, Jay! It was a hard choice between an Outer Island and Njord when deciding what to build. I didn't make it to OkoumeFest, so maybe I'll just try to finish the boat. The trouble is, I really want to make it a 3-piece sectional if I'm going to keep it - but that makes it a little more complex to finish. I'm pretty close to being able to slice it, though, and then could work on the pieces separately (would be easier in my current living situation).

We'll see...
