I am getting closer, we had it at muscatine last week, I am not happy with the hood yet but still trying,I have an idea gave to me last week I am going to try.windsheild is ordered,we moved the center deck back 6in,total new balsa wood floor,laminated transom, new supported deck,I didn't like the rub rail so we lowered it and glassed it too inside and out.I took the horn off,I am going to put a rope like glasspar steering wheel on it soon. the trailer was Eriks idea,just needed to be different.This is just a user boat so we made it our way,so the purist will hate it,but it will get used, we have been playing with it and getting about the way I want,,see ya Bill ,,also Thanks Peter,, [the MODERATOR]

bill, the g-3 looks good. i like the setback of the centerdeck,actually makes the boat look sleeker. the trailer fenders are off the hook!! looking forward to seeing it next month. you do put together some nice boats.

This is just a user boat


Bill, the fact that you plan on using it is awesome, but to call it "just" anything seems wrong. That is one (well two, actually) beatiful creation!

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.“
