Here is a great intentional capsize test of a SCAMP by Howard Rice in blustery conditions.

I've been a big fan of SeaClear2 for a couple years. Now that I have a dedicated notebook with GPS for boat nav... I found it a bit clunky. Mainly that you couldn't change the chart orientation to North up or heading up, it just stayed however the chart was made. I just discovered OpenCPN, another free program that does what SeaClear does only better. The UI is much better, orients charts all the same, either way you want, etc. Gordo |

I had a great time yesterday. The wind was more than I would have liked, but I can't control it so I just deal with it. I put together some photos and a video of SCAMP. Here is the link.

I found this video of a Sabre last night. You'll notice that even though it has an open cockpit it doesn't take on much water during a capsize due to the side air tanks.

I put a little video of our test sail up. Fair warning: it's pretty boring unless you happen to be interested in cartop catamarans. I sail along and natter about the boat, and that's about it.

Here is a nice video promoting the WoodenBoat Show’s Family Boatbuilding program. Duckworks will be helping Michael Storer and JOWoodworks this year. I will be there, eager to meet as many Duckworkers as I can.

Here is a link to a photo album posted by Steve Kingery – the pictures are from the recent Crystal River Boat Bash. Estimates are that a thousand people attended!

No one needs plans to build a pirogue. They are the easiest thing to make. Check out "wacky lassie"I built mine as I went along (not wacky lassie).
