Haven't gotten far enough to do any finish joinery yet, so no pics of furniture type construction; however, for those of you who might be wondering what keeps me out of the bars at night and away from wild women on the weekends, below is a link to the latest boat pics.
There are no problems, only varying degrees of challenging opportunity.
Holy mackeral Lew;
How big is your new toy? Those are vans and cars in the background are they not? Do your neighbors call you Noah?
Would you be so kind as to give us any specifics on it? LOA, power etc.
Thanks and a grand undertaking!

When you finish that monster, it should be a floating bar complete with wild women, so just consider it an investment!

I thought it was your face ;-)
Just kidding, I couldn't pass that one up!

Wow! This is very cool! I dabble just a bit in boat building now, more on the size of 16 feet and under, but hope to some day build a boat of that size. Defenently post more info on your boat, size, construction methods, and plan would be interesting.
Thanks!
LOA = 55 ft; Beam = 16 ft, Displacement = 60,000 lbs.
It is a double head sail ketch with a marinized 6 cyl, 120 HP, John Deere tractor engine for auxilary power.
Looks like the web page is screwed up. Had that info there.
Sometimes.
When finished, I'll call it home.
Whatcha gonna do for a shop then? :)

I met one guy in Big Bay, BC (while sailing north of Desolation Sound) who had a WWing shop in the 60' Sharpie he was building and living in.
