Incredible effort!
There are only two seasons in Vermont: boating season, and boat-building season.

Hello Sorin and everybody. I'm watching this thread because I'm in rebirth from a small sailboat (I built Hartley 16' - 10 years ago) to a motorboat. And the DE23 with 20-25 HP seems ideal for slow rivers, water chanels and lakes in Europe (in Europe is max beam on the road without permit only 255 cm / 8' 4"). Sorin, do you see PM from me?
Longer cabin with separately toilet will be good for longer time on the board. But it is clear that every change to the project takes a long time to build. Or 800 hours is together with wooden house around?
Windows will be glued in frames? You pay attention to the large windshield - thermal expansion can be surprising!
Have a nice day/weekend:-) Petr @ficcus

Thank you all for your appreciation.
I have a lot of pictures, I think over 1,000. Until this stage of construction, I put them in two videos on Youtube. If you have patience ... you can watch them here, then ... I'm waiting for criticism.

Part 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0KSQs8UPaUQ&t=578s
Part 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RKf4PcWzd8Q&t=35s
Part 3: work in progress

This is the first time I've uploaded something to Youtube, so please be understanding about editing :).

Yes, the table drop to a bed. There will be 6 sleeping places, 4 adults and 2 children
