Hell all,

bBrand new to this BB and in deep desire to start building a Vacationer Sailboat. Heck I've started to give up my prior hobby flying R/C models which I have been doing for 15 years +. I'm looking for a sport/hobby that is more inviting to family and friends and a good buddy of mine has pointed me into this direction. I've actually been thinking of owning a sailboat for many years but the cost was always too prohibitive for what I was looking for. The Stevenson Project fits the bill of exactly what I've been looking for. Problem is that I've been trying to contact them via the site posted e-mail address and the phone and thus far have not been successful. E-mails keep getting bounced back as un-deliverable to the address. Phone keeps ringing with no answering service. I'd like to order a set of the Vacationer plans but given that I'm not able to establish contact Im reluctant to send some money and not recieve the plan set.

Can someone help me out?

Thanks in advance and it's nice to meet you all.


Cheers,

Tim

Yes they are In the process of moving is all

Thanks Brian for your reply..

I guess I'll give Mike a bit more time to get settled in at the new place.

Much appreciated...

No problem Tim, When you start building your vacationer if you have any questions just come on in and ask away there are alot of folks who have built or are building this boat and can help.

Brian why don't you send Tim the material list and tell him not to get everything now just the ply wood 1" lumber screws and etc. also tell him to get some 3/4 " screws to use in place of the 1" the 1" will tend to come through in some places. Bud.

Ok well, Everything Bud just said and heres a link to the vacationer materials list.

Hey Bud I didn't know about the 1" screw thing and I already bought all my stuff dagumit! oh well I hope I do ok, Its not a piano its a boat.

Brian.

Yeah, it'll be a bit before the new place is set up, but in the meantime I'm still processing the PayPal orders on an every-two-weeks-or-so schedule from home.

After swapping a couple of private messages with Mike, I went ahead and placed my order for the Weekender plans. Mike you should see my money order in a day or 2

Thanks for the order. I'll keep an eye open for it. I'm out of town until next week on family stuff and will attend the orders when I return.
