  1. I like that idea but what did you replace the floor with? :grin: Still workin' on that one Greg! :shock:
  2. I solved the lost pencil problem by eliminating all horizontal surfaces in my shop. 8)
  3. Make your own plywood in any shape you want; the process is called "cold moulding". This can be done with a male or female mould, with or without the use of a vacuum. No more (probably less) complicated than the set-up for steam bending, plus the results are predictable.
  4. Looks and sounds like an event well worth attending. Chick, appears to be four comfortably onboard the Outer Banks 20, is that correct? I'd love to see more photos of this boat, especially interior shots.
  5. Hi everyone, please post lots of photos...especially the Outer Banks 20 if it shows. Wish I could justify the 12+ hour drive from New Hampshire...maybe next year.
  6. Graham, any chance the Outer Banks 20 will be there?
  7. The OB20 appeals to me because of its size and economy, to say nothing about the gorgeous lines (similar to the Jiffy V-22 but just a bit more...hmmmm? ...cohesive? ..."salty"?). I believe I can safely tow the OB20 with my Ranger pick-up where as the V-22 will require me to borrow a tow vehicle or trade my trusty Ranger. Economy of 1.5 gph at 15 mph is just what I want; I'm on the water to enjoy gunkholing and scenic cruising...our Connecticut River up here between Vermont and New Hampshire (especially north of Hanover) is wonderful cruising from May through November. Can you tell I can't wait to send Graham a check for the plans? Anyone want to buy a complete set of un-used Jiffy V-22 plans (with Mylars) at a discount?
  8. Arch Davis's Jiffy V-22 is a design that I've wanted to build for some time. I purchased the plans awhile ago and have gathered much of the plywood and timber...space has been prepared in my shop...I was ready to start this fall. But when I received WoodenBoat #210 in the mail yesterday and read "An Apostle of Speed", everything changed. The Outer Banks 20 (from what I've found on the website) may be a more practical design for me. Any input...Jiffy V-22 vs. Outer banks 20?
