Great index, Bruce. Re your: "V24 N17 missing" entry (it's an article by Bob Hicks about bow-steering Canard). This is again the same article as in V26 N7,...
Re: V24 N3, N4, & N10 Otter II Pts 1, & 2, & another (3 on III!) These issues predate my subscription, but I have a snippet that tells me there were sketches...
Bruce, some of your "missing" may be below. BOATS from the online MAIB site index per Roger's Bolger2 "sorting" file: V N p Mouser (aka Garfield) 16'...
The subject has come up in another thread, and I'm with Greg on this. Questions: How much cooler will it feel and actually be in an uninsulated BW1 compared to...
I've just received my set of Whalewatcher plans from Common Sense Boat but Jerry says he doesn't have the building instructions. Anybody got a set? via fax or...
Yes Graeme, I suppose the questions you pose are fair enough questions to ask. But having said that protection from the sun is the main issue with such a...
Hi Bill, first, thanks for putting together the Flikr photos of your LM build. Second, thanks for the movie compilation of how she sails. Brilliant! Third, a...
For those who are already planning their summer boating fun, the Lake Pepin Messabout will be June 5-9 in Lake City, MN. Full details are on the event website...
Graeme, Your note about adding a leeboard to a Long Micro brings this response/question from me. First an observation: The Micro I have seems to sail on the...
Mason (?) and Graeme, That's a neat idea! I had half-thought about some type of centerboard in the keel of my LM, but quickly dismissed the idea, in part b/c...
In the vein of the Lake Pepin Messabout notice.....the Rend Lake Messabout is June 11 - 15. This will be our first year attending but Rend Lake is 18,000 acres...
I see that Peter has a threat going on the WoodenBoat forum showing the build progress on Windermere. He's got so many pictures he'd be onto Bolger 8 here! ...
Curious to know if those with outstanding commissions ( 1 is 7 years old?) are seeing any progress now that the big gov'mnt project is reported to be complete....
Hey all - I'm new to this group: I'm planning to build a Junebug in 2010 (yes, next year: I built a SOF kayak in '07 and a PD Racer last year and swore an oath...
Glad someone thinks the centerboard-alongside-keel idea isn't nutty. A further evolution of the thought would be a second side-piece to the keel, spaced away...
I had a couple thoughts about the addition of a swing keel. The sides of the keel are deadflat right? As proof of concept you could through-bolt a CB to the...
I love this thread. We know that Micro sails as well as any catboat in relatively flat seas, yet suffers performance when the surf kicks up or in light airs....
Hi Don, ... We gave up on our commission, #668 Auriga, this past fall. Here's a rather long account of what we know and what happened. It's an unhappy story...
Jon, Sorry to here your experience went so badly. I had hoped we were going to start seeing more of Phil's work coming out but it sounds like it is mainly the...
You could always go to pdracer.com and get a variation on the BOLGER BRICK and SUPER BRICK.The fellahs there are very nice and will help you with any tech...
Jon Thank you for sharing your experience with us all. I appreciate the time you put into writing your reply. I had enjoyed hearing about your shop (when you...
Beware an ambitious woman with her own agenda:) I suppose if it took 10 years to finally come up with the plans and you had, by then, become to old to build,...
Hi Bill, ... After seeing the recent video, Long Micro looks pretty good! Lately, small boating has really taken hold of us. We used seven different small...
