Good things take time and it sounds like your boat building sessions are a lot
of fun.
Thanks

I've been building a 17' flat bottom. Mostly I've been pulling details out
of Skip's book but the line have been taking care of themselves. I'm not
sure how long the boat has taken so far. I've been building it with a
couple of friends on odd weekends over the last two years. Each building
session has been mixed with Bar-B-Qs, beer, making native hunting gear or
tanning hides. I'm partway through skinning at this point.
