We know that almost all small boat sailors are geniuses. This particular genius swam like "ein Stein" (a stone), but generally refused to wear a PFD.
An article by John Vigor.
About a boat he had been given while still in Germany.
About his stay on Long Island.

I've taken Bolger's Singlehander Schooner as a starting point and turned it into a 94% scale stitch and glue boat with composite masts. Here's the link for the description of what I've built so far.

Thought folks would like to see the effort to recover after a dismasting... makes me like wooden masts a whole lot more.

M’Lady has just finished getting a new article up on our website www.BoatsAndRice.com. It’s based mostly on photos donated by my friend Harry Duncan (www.allscalemodels.com) after his trip to Viet Nam last summer.

This is a slightly dated entry from this very interesting blog, but still relevant. It's nice to see the birchbark canoes being built.

An interesting clip of wooden boat building and sailing in Russia.
Interesting seeing the Orthodox Priest blessing the sailing vessel, the wooden church and the models built for the Hornblower film.

The Alma Dopel was built in Bellingen on the north coast of NSW and is still sailing today. The video is interesting and so is its story.

Maybe a little bigger than we usually encounter in Duckworks, but I'll bet the aura is the same.

First off, here's my first ever video interview that'll give you a wee
bit of an overview of the operation.
For those of you who don't like videos over the web, here's a writeup from the local on-line newspaper (please note: I NEVER said the skins were delicate).
And here's the pics and commentary I've been writing up every day. I'll get today's pics up a little later, then flesh it out with prep and aftermath links and such.
