lbrewer Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 I have been admiring the pictures the sockeye on the Devlin site (as well as all the other boats there) for years. When I look at other designs to build I always go back there to compare. I hope you remember to keep us updated as the build progresses. That boat is breathtaking..... maybe I'll win the lottery or something.... Quote
Guest Oyster Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 While many see a bunch of wood going together, that will float, I still see many individuals expressing their personalities when spending hard earned money, all be it relative, no different than anyone else that participates in these unigue forums and their builds here on display. While many may say we are all nuts, at least this thread shows that there is plenty of this stuff going around, keeping many sole proprietorships operating, even though in too many cases at a loss. But heck consider it legal drugs, at least. [Now how is that for being philosophical in creating some form to this madeness] 8) I guess the next thing that we will see is some guy here posting a picture of the good capt. standing on the street corner holding a sign that says "I work for boat plans" Quote
capt jake Posted February 11, 2006 Author Posted February 11, 2006 I guess the next thing that we will see is some guy here posting a picture of the good capt. standing on the street corner holding a sign that says "I work for boat plans" I am almost beyond that stage. ;) Now I am working for plywood! :) Quote
timnphx Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 I agree with the last posting on this. I have gotten captured into the wood working and building of boats (for my own pleasure) even though only have built one 18 ft strip-wood canoe and now one rowboat/sailboat, it is enjoyable. It is something done a billion times in the past by other master builders, but it is all new to me. It is the desire to learn I would say. Tim Quote
