Howdy from the Lone Star State of Texas

Howdy from Texas,

Just joined the forum since I am starting on a small boat building project. I will be building a Michael Storer Goat Island Skiff. Last time I built a boat from down under it was a Rob Given's, Paper Tiger catamaran. Way back in 1975. Spent many years sailing a Gougeon Brothers, built Tornado catamaran trying to win a berth on the USA Olympic Sailing Team. We got close a few times but never made it to the Olympics. I have been the owner and around boats all my life and plan to keep it that way with this new boat.

Thanks for letting me in.

Trying to not make a big deal of aboard :U

I originally read your intro and was thinking that I read 1795, then it became clear 1975. Been around for a while, eh.

Texx,

Ease up on Johnno. Yes there is a Texas in USA. It's that state that's a whole lot smaller than West Australia.
