Thanks, that is the conclusion I'm coming to as well. My problem is, even though I really want to and plan to build, I have no boat and I want a CS 15 or 17 NOW! In Ga, spring is almost here! Maybe somebody has one they are thinking about parting with? So I could have one to sail and one to build? Anybody?

I'm a potential new builder (and very out-of-practice sailor) from Acworth Ga. I've done a lot of woodworking but no epoxy or fiberglass work. I'd really like to build a CS 15 or 17 with my son (16). Should I build a canoe or kayak or just practice the techniques before I start?
