OD 16 Done!

Post by BWhalen »

Finally got her done. Took her out over the past weekend. Launched near the Norfolk Naval Shipyard and ran her up the James River. Overnighted across from Jamestown with my father in his boat. Ran her back to the ramp on Sunday. The wind kicked up out of the south 15-20 on the way back. She beat me up a little bit but the the boat took it no problem. I would love to take credit for the beauty of this boat but it definitely belongs to the designer. Now for the next boat......If my wife will let me :lol:

The design is great and your craftmanship helps make the design shine! Looks great....I love the color combination.

You did a wonderful job with the boat and enjoy!

Thank you all,

Sorry about the blurry pics there...the first one is from my cell phone and the others were an older digital...I'll try to get some better pics and a few of the build photos up later tonight. Daniel, I can't wait to see an FS17 crusing down the river. I'm trying to talk my wife into a DE25....she doesn't know it yet but I purchased plans the other night. 8)
