James' boat

[paddlesteamerman1]

Thanks TJ..

I had a great find this morning.. I was nosing around our farms workshop and I found a nice lot of redgum that could look good on the boat.. just a concern about the weight..
Also, with the recent downpour of rain, I am 'launching' Crickets hull into a shallow dam, because the wood might seal up a little bit after getting to some moisture.
Can only hope though!

unfortunately this project has been officially stopped.
We had a severe storm here not long ago and the wind managed to catch a large sheet of corrugated iron and smash it into the bow of the hull. It has been ruined beyond any repair.
