    Maybe over Christmas....

    Maybe...

    In the meantime it is possible to keep up with my wherabouts at http://www.bitingmidge.com though.

    Top effort to all who have been building, I'm madly trying to catch up with all the posts!

    Cheers,

    Maybe I was dead for a time!

    Life has taken many turns for us over the past few years, and not to put too fine a point on it, the rowboat remains as it was when last I posted!

    To be fair, we do spend a lot of time not being at the Home of the Biting Midge, and in a scene rather like one from the Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy, a pan galactic bypass (OK a motorway) has been planned right through our living room which sadly is located directly over the boat shed, so something has to give!

    We are moving next month, so here's the plan!

    If one of you fine people would like a Storer Rowboat KIT, with all ply cut and precoated on the inside, panels joined, gunwhales and inwhales milled and joined, bulkheads ready to assemble, and all scantlings milled and neatly bundled in paulownia, please contact me!

    Oh, and there's a pair of oar blanks and some lovely Gaco snaplock rowlocks thrown in to the bundle for the first customer!

    You can have the lot ready to assemble and go rowing for $400, but since the panels are 15'6" long, you will need to be able to pick them up from the Sunshine Coast.

    Cheers,

    P

    The MSD rowboat is a very nice rowboat for rivers and flat water...highly recommended.

    Folks may recall I build one with some students a couple years ago.

    Hi all, the complete "kit" is still for sale, I'm moving house on Monday, and disappearing to the Northern Hemisphere for six months in a couple of weeks' time, so it will go into storage if unsold by month's end.

    Cheers,
