Way-To-Go!!! You have to post more photos and keep us updated on what you've learned. I just ordered the plans for the Spindrift11 a couple of days from Graham and Carla. Can't wait to get started. Thanks for the beautiful photos. Nice Job Rick Cherry

You are in sync with most of those I've spoken with. Actually I've decided on a bigger boat already. The Spindrift11. LOL! After speaking with Graham at length (Thank you Graham for all of your valuable time) he strong armed me into the bigger boat. LOL! Just kidding! I can't wait to receive my plans and get started. Thanks for the input!!!!

I've been waiting on the Stevenons Project people to get back with me for over 40 days now. I've tried calling/faxing/emailing and NO ANSWERS I finally went elsewhere for plans - They can have my $87.00 that they took out of my checking account over 30 days ago, but I will not order from them again.

Thanks to everyone for their help on alternatives to the Weekender!

I have had an awful experience with Stevenson Projects in that I ordered their Weekender plans/DVD 6 weeks ago and have never received them. I've called/written and faxed my self to death, but have gotten ZERO response. They deducted the money from my account over 4 weeks ago. Does anyone know what's going on with them? OR would anyone like to sell my their plans and DVD? LOL!

Well! WOW! What a decision! I am sure you put a lot of time, money, and personal sacrafice into the boat. I would settle the problem this way!!!! I would go sit in her one more time and tell her you are thinking about selling her. She will let you know what she wants.

I just joined this discussion group because I've ordered the Weekender plans for my 1st boat project. I built a pop-up camper last winter and am now being bitten hard by the Boat Bug! There's not a lot of places to sail here in Indiana, but it's been a dream of mine to learn to sail. The thought of you parting with the boat that you put so much time into seems strange to me. BUT! maybe you should take the money and build a Bigger one! Isn't there a great satisfaction in knowing something you made and nurtured is bringing so much joy to someone else who may not have the skills and talents to provide for themselves?
