Rob,

I am very interested in your Seabatticle renderings, but to save you
replying to a lot of emails, perhaps it would be easier to upload them
the files section.

BTW I have finally moved to Thailand and this year will have the time
and space to begin building - starting with a minimal rowboat to prove
to the boss that I can do it at all, followed by a schooner
elementarry, followed by a schooner visionarry. I am hoping that
spending extra time making mistakes on a small scale will reduce the
overall time by reducing mistakes on a large scale.

I had been intending to build a wave dancer dory to start, but John
Holtrop hasn't been responding to my emails

Any suggestions for something similarly simple to learn infusion on?

Best regards
Herb
