: That's certainly good advice. I've read the first one cover-to-cover
: at least three times, and used it for reference on a great many more
: occasions. Also Kayakcraft and The New Kayak Shop (as well as the books
: on other building techniques). You can also read every post on this forum
: for no end of good advice and non-obvious tips and tricks. But spending
: half your days and nights doing that will NOT shorten the overall time
: to build a boat :-)

: Another thing that will add to the time will be taking photos as you go.
: But I know I regretted not doing so on my first boat, and won't make the
: same mistake again.

: Andy

Yeah I too really need to spend more time in the shop with the camera.
