+2 GB am really enjoying watching this little build more so than some of the big builds. It is just different and fascinating.

It amazes me the amount of detail and craftsmanship that can go into that small of boat.

It's the kind of thing that lifts your spirit just to look at it.

That is why I'm enjoying this so much the little elements that are part of the build and bring beauty to the pram. Tom
