    I enjoy wood.

    My boat building has hit a snag in a 1979 Potter built Seacraft. My wife let me buy it two days ago and I am focusing on it so we can ski and tube out the summer. Runs great, but may have a wierd electrical problem, not charging the batteries and the tach is bouncy. May have to put a new rectifier and stator. Fun. Sorry to hijack. Eric

    As usual, a very beautiful, functional boat. Eric
  3. I hate to ask, but being in Mobile, you have a local source for good cypress? Eric
  4. I'm in Mobile as well. It seemed odd the discussions of the delta and perdido, figured ya'll must be close. If the boat gets going I would love to see it as well. I am currently finishing 2 elegant punts to play with at the beach, but the next project is making a new Bosarge skiff from the one I have taken apart on my carport.
  5. lbrewer and Steve Day, are ya'll in Alabama?
  6. I saw the one from Santa Rosa Beach is for sale. It was either in Messing About in Boats or Woodenboat. Robb White's boat was very unique and certainly had his flair. I read somewhere that his son Wes stated it was the only boat he ever say him loft. I think Robb White's boat performed well because it is probably a lot lighter than drawn as designed. Great looking boats. I personally love a single screw inboard more than anything.
  7. One of these years I am going to have to go to this one....always looks fun.
  8. There is a wonderful book published called Gladesman about Glenn Simmons who grew up in the Everglades prior to being a National Park. Plans for a Glades Skiff are in the appendix in the back of the book. I have been meaning to throw one together for some time. The skiffs will reportedly float on dew.
