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.   

Hi James,

Good to see you back, but sad news about your paddler project

Regards
Eddy
