    a learning curve it was does this mean i can say i have built a wooden boat
    I read an earlier post that boats seem to name themselves and this one did
    On Cloud Nine due to the milky (moisture in epoxy) look that it has
    looks just like clouds. Have not launch it yet trying to get time of the more required time killer ie work This forum has given me valuable info in this project
    and now looking to the next build. This time in S.A. instead of N.T. where i

    Thanks for the pics Rob, and I hope you have as much fun using her as you did building her....but why am I not surprised that you are already planning the next??
    She looks to be a lovely boat. Congratulations on a wonderful effort. Hope we see some pics of her getting wet.

    Hi Rob,
    I've somehow managed to miss your posts since the first one on this boat - she's turned out really well.

    Are you near Adelaide or in country SA? Would be good to meet up when the local "squadron" has another day at West Lakes.
    Cheers, Bob the labrat

    Measure once and.... the phone rings!
