<p>Absolutely wonderful, Richard. Who would know that is the same boat? I'm sorry that you and I have not gotten together. We live so close to each other.</p>
<p></p>
<p>I can think of a lot places in Idaho where that boat would be perfect. How fun would it be to float Marsh Creek in that thing from Lola Creek to Bear Creek? But it'll look nice in the lady's cabin too. I guess.</p>
<p>Nice job.</p>

<p>Finally got it done. Funny thing: a lady bought it with three oars to hang upside down from her ceiling in her mountain cabin. Paid $2300. Now need to find another project boat. Anybody near Boise, Idaho have one to restore? Pics attached.</p>

<p>Back at it again. Totally refinished and two part epoxy filled all parts. Made new chine. Now gluing last of front and rear chine pieces. Next is to refit sides.<a href="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/2472863940?profile=original" target="_self"><img width="721" src="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/2472863940?profile=RESIZE_1024x1024" width="721" class="align-full"/></a></p>

<p>Richard, great project. I admire your effort and spirit. Too many times these days we write off and criticize a significant effort if "we" think someone is "wasting" their time or going down the wrong road, so to speak. Hey, its your time and your project. I'm sure it will look great when done and candle any water that you can! Looking forward to seeing the progress.</p>

<p>Used my skill saw with a plywood blade to cut 3/4" off the bottom of both sides (removed) where the rot was plus numerous screw holes. Will adjust ribs when I put it back together. I'm in Boise also. 866-3110 Would like to see your boat and meet you. I live off of Cloverdale between Fairview and Ustick. Dick.</p>
