Kudzu Posted June 19, 2016 Posted June 19, 2016 Just finished up the twins, A Ravenswood and a VARDO for my Client Todd. He works for Wood Boat magazine and these leave next week for his home to ply the waters of Maine. He ordered these with everything. Laminated-sewn in coamings, Redfish Seats, float bats, two tone paint. I need to take them to the water for a little test but I must admit I don't want to get them dirt or skinned. Quote
Action Tiger Posted June 19, 2016 Posted June 19, 2016 Jeff, those are beautiful. You should get a job doing that! Seriously, those boats are lovely. Your skill has grown immensely, and the quality of your craft is evident in the quality of your craft. You dig? That is a very high bar you've set. And, congratulations, Todd, you lucky devil! Enjoy your float bats! Quote
Pilotlon Posted June 19, 2016 Posted June 19, 2016 Lovely boats. I'm also going to try my hand at a laminate coaming on my Short Shot. Just finished cutting the blanks today. Excellent, excellent job. Lon Quote
Bernd v. Hoesslin Posted June 19, 2016 Posted June 19, 2016 Absolutely incredible boats! They're amazing! Quote
Hirilonde Posted June 21, 2016 Posted June 21, 2016 The knot for the forward hold down chord isn't centered. Now I feel better They look great Jeff. 1 Quote
woodman Posted June 22, 2016 Posted June 22, 2016 Looks good Jeff, I like the black hull........ Quote
Kudzu Posted June 26, 2016 Author Posted June 26, 2016 Delivered to the client and they are headed back to Maine tonight of in the morning. They will be ply the waters around Wooden Boat campus. Quote
Kudzu Posted June 27, 2016 Author Posted June 27, 2016 Delivered the boats yesterday. Todd is the advertising director for Wooden Boat Magazine and an Extreme Endurance Driver apparently! He left Maine at 3 PM Saturday and I meet him near Chattanooga Tennessee Sunday at 12:30 PM!! He was going to get a few hours sleep and then head back to Maine. It would take me 3 days to drive what he did in one day and I would need some time to recover before heading back.. I tip my hat to anyone that drive like that! As you can see we are both all smiles. Anxious to hear and see photos of the these boats on the Maine Coast! Quote
Action Tiger Posted June 27, 2016 Posted June 27, 2016 Man, you are the epitome of the American Dream. You guys look like some kind of undercover narcotics team in that pic, though. You better tell Todd he owes us pics for the Launches Section... Quote
Digger Posted June 28, 2016 Posted June 28, 2016 Got to see these boats in person , the pix don't do them justice .They are really sweet . Nice work Jeff ! Quote
