I love boats.
This is "Grebe", a Drake 13 Sharpie designed by Selway-Fisher. I built this boat in 2019 and sail it on Cascade Reservoir.
My first build, a Phil Bolger Cartopper.
Trying to figure out how to switch the design from centerboard. to daggerboard.
Plywood "tack'-and-tape" boats go together fast!
It's the details that take time.
My second boat, a Pete Culler designed "Butternut". This one is cedar-strip construction.
My little fleet.
Sunset cruise on Cascade Reservoir.
A "pattino" stand-up rowboat I designed but have not yet built.
Loaded for an overnight cruise.
