Which boat?? I guess you mean the two footer in the background: -

If you could see under the house you'd see the Goat Island Skiff (whatever 15'6" is in metric), designed by our very own Boatmik and which is now badly in need of a bit of varnish (another excuse for not finishing anything else). Maybe I'll use painting it as an excuse to talk some more!

Cheers,

Ok, I thought it was a different one. I thought maybe one of those flash racing remote control jobs like the Marblehead design etc.

thanks anyway, it a lovely craft and I do recall that other thread.

Mrs Caliban and I had a great time mixing with you lot of weirdos.
Canadian sharpening gurus, silly architechs, generous idiots giving redgum burls away, chicks who are better woodworkers than any of us (except Major panic and rocker) and test pilots for jigs.
Wongo would have been in his element. I was. :D
Wendy even brought a stuffed simian for a certain absent sydney toff.
But I won the yo-yo but I think Silent C must have made a clandestine visit because it had been stolen. Reminds me of two muffins last year.
When will the indignities end :mad:

Hey Gumby,
I got a close up & personal tour of the aforementioned vessel & I gotta say it's a "wee ripper" (spoken in a broard Scotts accent :D ) Unfortunately we didn't get to take it out & test it on a broard reach, I reckon It'd have be a pocket rocket!! ;) :D :D

:( I wanna go

Good God - I missed all the fun!! :o

And Rocker too - unless you were hiding somewhere - I was looking forward to meeting you and those plans you offered :(

Sorry I was late - I've got a heap of oz cedar that I want to try one on - mind you if you think thats less than ideal I've got some brush box that would be more than sturdy.
