We're a group of small boat enthusiasts in thegreater Chicagoland area. Some of us are avid boatbiulders - most with an affinity for designs by Jim Michalak. Others just like boating and don't mind hanging with a bunch of guys talking about epoxy. Membership is by approval to avoid spam, so tell us why you want in. Don't worry - our standards are VERY low. (We got in, after all.) You don't even need a boat! In fact, that's the best way to do it - come bum rides in a bunch of boats and see what you like and don't.
