This is how you do it, right?

I can't believe he is really going to enjoy "boating"
in this thing that much. The old "water line is inversely
proportional to the joy/use of a boat", but for 400-800 million
he better enjoy it or else!

Hope all is well with you. A friend sent me a link
to a video which I really enjoyed and thought you
would too. It's a site about a bloke sailing around the UK in
a 19 foot boat but the quality of the vids are really excellent
and there is a lot of interesting info and history about the places
he visits. Very well done indeed. Don't know if you have time
to watch it but recommended.
Cheers Benjy

There is an interesting discussion
on strip planking at Mark's forum. Mark Bowdidge is giving us
our say on the development of a new design, his 16ft offshore
Centre Console fishing boat.

Yes, but she's still going around! John Vigor had a prescient
commentary comparing Abby's and Jesse Watson's approaches in his
March 28 entry.

I've been very slack with my build due to major
home improvements going on. I've got the boat more or less ready
for the decks which I hope to tackle this weekend.
I've loaded some more photos if you're interested which can be
seen here.

I just posted a couple of videos shot during a
sail in Slider that my wife Nancy and I took Easter afternoon.
It relates somewhat to the issues we've been discussing regarding
Slipper. In
the first video, I demonstrate how little weather
helm Slider has while sailing to windward in a fresh breeze. Either
that, or I've got really strong fingers. Second
video. Ray

Christmas in springtime: The Plastiki finds land.
More than a month after the Plastiki set sail from San Francisco,
the six-person
crew has made it to Christmas Island, nearly marking
the halfway point of the ship's journey to cross the Pacific Ocean.

Malibu Outrigger
plans, 1958. I think the gap between the gaff and
the mast interesting. It allows for adjusting the Centre of Effort
it seems.

An interesting online tide

G'day Everyone,
Going like mad with 4 new designs on the board (16ft Offshore
Console, Shoreline 7000 and the 18 ft Bass Boat). Just thought
I'd give a sneak preview of this new
design. I'll bring updates as they occur. Interested
in comments. Regards
Mark Bowdidge
