Thanks for the link Steve. Really nice.
Hey Rik. How you doing? Good to hear from you. You well?

Hoi Steve, been a bit busy with projects, other than boat building. Once they are cleared out of the way the Seagull will be finished soon. Then prepare for the next project. Also a Welsford, same size as PF but with cabin and long keel... That dream is getting stronger and stronger. The PF is behaving excellently on the water here. She can still do more than I feel like doing.
I'd quite like to build a penguin but I don't have the space, or the money, especially if I want to retire early!!
That's why I am thinking of the Pelegrin, a much simpler design but with the right dimensions. The only huge obstacle is the lead shoe... But I am starting to get some ideas to overcome it. Everything else seems as simple as the PF.
I miss building boats
I've mainly done kayaks, canoes and a seaway fisher highlander 12
Arwen was the first big proper boat I have done
But time, money, retirement travel plans......well there we go!
