yea, I'm building mine from scratch also. MBB boats are beautiful, but mine won't be, I'm just not going to flow coat and sand that much. Also, this is my first one, and the last thing you want to do is try to make the first of anything you do perfect. That's just a lesson in frustration.

Thanks for posting pics of your boat. I'm going to attach my thwarts the same way you did. I think Jason chases the elegance aspect of his boats too much for a builder of my talents. I need to over build to help compensate some both for my building ability, rowing skills and attentiveness on the river.

I see you're in Bozeman. I got as far as Rock Creek last year. I'm going to try NW Montana this year. I want to try to see how far I can drag my ass up the SF of the Flathead. I know I won't be able to use the boat, but it's got to be a great trip. Ever fished up that way?

Robert, I added a few photo's from our summer float on the Bighorn for your pleasure.

Good Day,

How is everything with you, I picked interest on you after going through your short profile and deemed it necessary to write you immediately. I have something very vital to disclose to you, but I found it difficult to express myself here, since it's a public site.Could you please get back to me on:(mrsstellaabudheir@gmail.com ) for the full details.

Have a nice day

Thanks God bless.

Stella.
