The Crew's name is Anna Camille. She just turned 6 weeks. Thanks for all the congrats. Hopefully someday soon I will have an actual boat to post here!...
That Is an "Actual Boat" A Fine One. I applaud you. I just don't have what it takes to build a boat like that. I could probably fill up the file section with...
Chair should be the priority. Then you'll be comfortable "Thinking" about what you Should be "Doing". That is a nice little skiff. I'm half serious about...
I got this info from Don Carron a while ago FD-10 (My 15 hp) is a 1956. Next year, FD-11 was an 18 Hp. I think Evinrude went to the 18 a year earlier, but I'd...
Dories don't have chine logs, the sides are just nailed to a thick bottom, but the Monk skiffs aren't dory construction except for those metal clips on the...

Seems it depends a little on the type of construction. "Classical" dory construction using planks would indeed permit solid attachment of garboard to bottom...
Welcome aboard! What's your name? It's easy to get hooked on sailing. I'm familiar with O'day Daysailers and Widgeons, but not the Javelin. It seems to be...
Jack- I guess I should have specified traditional dory construction. It's interesting that one of the things that used to set dories apart from other types of...
Well hey, yeah, thanks. We're Steve and Elise and our Javelin,Semilla, is at the site below...sometimes we are a family day sailer,except we haven't taken the...

Good Morning: What a nice surprise to find this group. I just moved to Florence and have been building boats most of my life. Still doing it. I need some...
I didn't say I hadn't blown myself up. Just that I didn't "Remember" blowing myself up. (-; Wood stoves can be dangerous, but so far so good. (So can gas,...
... Hey Vern! We live just up the coast. Home port ...the rather unpredictable Alsea Bay. What sort of vessal do you find yourself floating around in lately?...
I try to keep "Flamables" away from my stove, but usually when I look over there I'm just amazed that it hasn't burned the shop down. Sawdust and wood just...
No one has mentioned Pellet Stoves. From the little I have seen of them they seem quite nice. Downsides are, The are pretty spendy (but isn't everything) They...
Hey John. New blood. Now I can tell all my old stories again. Oh Boy! Welcome folks. Nice to have some new people. Be careful, little boat can lead to big...

To all: With winter just around the corner, I thought I'd let everyone know about a great WW II story on the web. As it is quite long it may take a chunk of...
Are there any good spots for sailing during the winter in the valley?The winds here on the coast are getting a bit skwirly (even more thanusual) Is Fern Ridge...
Dexter Reservoir southeast of Eugene is about the only lake near the valley that has water in it during the winter. If there had been any water in Fern Ridge...
Boats and Motorcycles. I don't think you'll have John throw you out for that. (BTW- Just a question I always have to ask all my motorcycle friends, "Where's...
