We have the skin on and are ready to start sealing tomorrow! The skin went on with very few hitches and we should have it all ready for debut at R2K3. I was down on the coast this weekend and picked up a couple of crab pot floats for the outrigger (I am using an early attempt at a Greenland paddle for the crosspiece). My daughter has really gotten into the project and feels great ownership over the boat. The stats for the boat are:
LOA - 10' 11 1/8"
Beam - 17 5/8"
Weight - Final is unknown, it is currently about 10-12 lbs.
The detailed construction process is shown on my site.
Regards,
Marcel
