Backyard Boatbuilding 2


Backyard Boatbuilding is for the sharing of information about building or repairing a boat yourself.

George Buehler , a boat designer of some renown, is the philosophical inspiration for this group.

This is a full service group, once you’re a member all the membership areas are open to you. So come on in, sit awhile and let's talk about building boats!

**We've had to set the groups options to include an approval process for messages from new members because of being SPAMed by off topic posts. Usually your first on-topic message post will be acted on within just a few hours.***

We have set up an overflow group for construction photo albums at Backyard Boatbuilding 3 to allow members to share details of their projects.

I'm going to have to skip around a bit the next week or two as many projects are in process, but many are on hold for materials or other delays. I'll get back to the metal work that is back from the galvanizing plant in a day or two and show it installed. Today's pic is the "Official Number" board. This brings up an interesting topic. You notice that I preceded the number with the letters "NO." This is as prescribed in the Federal Documentation instructions here in the US. But some countries use "O.N." for Official Number. At Trawler Fest I saw a boat from China with "N.O." preceding the number. If I can find my pic, I'll post it. Anyway, my board is Jatoba, hand carved,with the bottom of the numbers flattened with a router. I'll prime the recesses and use a fake gold leaf paint (Gold is over $1000.00/ounce today) used in restorations. It is a water based product by the T.J.Ronan Corp called "Aqua Leaf". We'll see?! -Dan
