That's funny - I have also cracked ribs, and also sneeze massively.
It's not the best combination, all right.

Re: Removing outboard from boat.
I make no claims to being a good example but I'm all in on cautionary tale.

Re: At last a build thread: CR16 skiff
Well, when I get a copy, I'll put it up - I've only heard the rawest form so I don't know if it'll be any good or not, but it's on tape, anyway... I'm glad you enjoy the weird asides, I rarely know how much information to include or exclude. I've been lucky to get to do a lot of stuff that I find in...

Re: Removing outboard from boat.
If it was me doing it, I'd probably just lower the trailer tongue right down to the floor, jack up the axle as necesary, run a line up to the joist, block the motor under the skeg and lower the boat out of the way. All you're doing is balancing the engine, you don't have to hoist it. Pop the stand i...

Re: At last a build thread: CR16 skiff
I do like seeing them run again...this boat seems to be a freebie magnet so that's cool. At this rate, if I sell my big boat when I'm done, I may actually join that microscopic class of "boatbuilders who came out financially ahead after a build." I'm no white-hot outboard mechanic or anyth...

Re: At last a build thread: CR16 skiff
All right, I finally have a somewhat photogenic update. I'm working on ensmoothenating the hull...it's actually fairing out pretty fast. https://i.imgur.com/UQ2lzSB.jpg Fairing pics are always super boring though and I won't go to far into that. I am laying down my own mix of epoxy and a combination...

Hey, stop interfering with my self-image as an iconoclastic rebel who breaks all the rules and lives life on his own terms!

Re: PG25 or GS28
Thank you TomW - I am starting to see that the difference between build time on these boats comes down not to functionality but looks! That is one of the most important foundational realizations of boatbuilding right there. You can have a workboat in a few months. You can have a masterpiece in a fe...
