Hello all,
I posted an intro the other day but put it in the wrong place. I was planning to build a Vacationer a while back but life got in the way and I pushed it to a back burner - way back. Now I guess I have taken another look at priorities and have decided that life is too short to not do one or two things that you want to do...just for the enjoyment of it. I had a talk with the wife and kids and they have offered their enthusiastic support for this crazy boat thing of mine - as long as I include them in the adventure...and fix a thing or two around the house from time to time.
I had originally planned to build a Vacationer but I am still going back and forth between that and a Weekender. We have 5 kids but we couldn't all fit on a Vacationer either so maybe I'll go with the Weekender after all. There is a short term plan though.......
I was thinking of building a small boat to get my feet wet. I looked at a couple easy plans that look like even I could build. I still obviously have to make a couple of decisions but one big decision has been made; I WILL BUILD A BOAT - SOON.
Looking forward to sharing the experience with all of you.
