Nice work! Isn't that the best feeling when it slides of the trailer the first time into the water and FLOATS! hooray! I will crack a quality adult beverage to commemorate your launch... I better wait until after noon though... ; )

Looks fantastic on the water! I am close behind you with my Don Hill also. I hope next week to be in the water. You helped me on a forum in regards to the trailer and that is about ready. I would imagine it is a GREAT feeling. How does it handle? Steve

Just think, if you wanted to build a 24 footer you wouldn't have to do any more scarfs than you did on that boat!
Nice Job. Any fish slime yet?

Right now my boat building partner is part way through another 18ft build. I am helping him out with that a little. Then we are going to start on a 16ft boat. Hope that one is done for early spring fishing next year. After that I don't know. I will probably take a break so that my girlfriend does not decide to take a break from me.

Very nice boat. Interesting how you hung the front seat. That is the right amount of scarfs for an 18' boat, it takes 2 as well for a 16 footer if all you can get is 8 foot ply. I would like to use this picture on the web site on our Gallery Page if that is all right with you. I have plans for a fish box that hangs under the front seat and pulls out if you would like to have them.
