Cool 4x8 is pretty big if you don't have anything in the way. That's more square feet than my PK cockpit. 32 v. 30 for the PK. You did get the "Cockpit of a...
I'm thinking about designing and building a cruising Kayak that I can throw on top of the Subaru for quick easy outings. (Although the PK loads so easy it's...
Pat, I haven't put the bottom on yet, but did have a similar effect with the side panels. Using some very flat plywood and some _very_ straight sticks for...
from dr. Kayak: aka capt dr lesh, ex everthing. You know I have tried every kind of kayak there is (almost). The things I don't like are: too heavy, to tippy,...
Hey, gang It's Sunday evening (9:30 p.m. PDT) and I was just attempting to research the archive at the group's Yahoo website and got nothing below 'Subject...
Sorry, I'm so discombobulated that I thought I was posting this to the Bolger group. But the same situation applies here as well, at least for me. I don't...
It's me again already. Sorry to take up so much bandwidth. Turns out it must have been a glitch at my end -- although I still cannot understand how messages...
Don't forget September 19! http://www.talklikeapirate.com/ -- John <jkohnen@...> http://www.boat-links.com/ Nobody ought to wear a Greek fisherman's...
Understanding will only make it worse. Everybody out of the car, slam all the doors, run around it a couple of times, get back in and hope it starts. Reboot...
Ya, Pat, with my old computer I often rebooted to 'solve' mysterious problems. Obviously that's what I should have done a lot sooner last night but I was...
Yesterday Mary and I took an electric trip up Beaver Creek in the McKenzie Skiff. It was a beautiful day, but pretty windy. Sometimes the creek was sheltered...
I was looking at this months' Wooden Boat Magazine and saw the interesting article about Ronald Young's Poulsbo Skiffs. I remember the Poulsbo Skiff at The ...

from terry lesh: I used to salmon troll out of Nanaimo, BC, in these skiffs.They had a 3 hp air cooled inboard 4 cycle (probably a Briggs, or Tehcumsa or the...
Oops, that should be "the second bridge above the ramp", since there are two bridges _below_ the ramp, so, strictly speaking, the "second bridge" would be the...
Poulsbo boats just look like Good Boats. I've never experienced one, but apparently they _are_ good boats. Not much good for carting around on a trailer,...
I am giving some serious thought to building Karl Stambaugh's 18'6" Redwing cruiser. Plans are $90 when ordered directly from Stambaugh's Chesapeake Marine...
From Terry: I've heard that Karl Stambaugh is very helpful to builders who buy the Redwing Plans from him. I don't know how that would work if you bought the...
I'd buy from the designer. $20-30 is pretty cheap for getting to ask questions and a real bargin when you run into something that brings you to a stop. I...
Thanks for your comments, Pat. My concern about the larger Redwing, the 21-ft Pilothouse version, is that it's maybe a little too much larger on the outside....
PPS: From Terry: It would be nice to be able to see a completed Redwing 18, if you locate any around the NW, let us know. I would like to check it out myself,...
If you do a straight 10% Scaleup with no major modifications, it isn't very hard. I just took my little hand held calculator and started multiplying All the...
Terry and all ... Could you post the link? I can't seem to find it altho I'm sure I had it at one time. I check my mail at work and at home and the favorites...
John, If you get to Port Orford there is a small bakery and deli there that is worthwhile going to. It's called Port Orford Breadworks and I,m sure anyone...
I have been reading the conversations about the Redwing with some interest. I also was attracted to the boat but the thing that really turned me off (at least...
If anyone finds a picture/plans of this Paulsbo boat I would like to see them. Any boat that can go from Anacortes to Wrangall is worth a second look!!...
Hi Joel, how's it all going? The site is www.svensons.com/newweb/boats I think the boat that went to AK, must have been one like the Dolphin, only a little...
From Terry: Hi Virgil, sounds right cool, keep it on the list of places to messabout. I love going different places, especially quiet ones. Virgil Gentry...
From Terry Lesh: Hi Craig. Good ideas! Karl loves his Redwing designs, and he is very cool about new ideas. I'm sure if you wrote or e-mailed him with your...
