Joining the Modern Era. In an attempt
to join the modern era of communication I have started a blog
dealing with issues of boat building so I invite any and all responses.

Does a 48-day voyage in an open boat with only
25 days' worth of rations sound like your idea of an adventure?

I thought your members might enjoy this item of
leisure boating history from a British
Pathe Pictorial of 1955. In Britain, in the days
before TV ruled, Pathe newsreels were an essential part of any
cinema programme. Cheers

Check out this video
of our klub outing last w-end just east of Montreal.
These guys are the hottest of the hot up here. On a couple of
shots these guys are surfing with not a care in the world above
Class IV drops. I hate to admit it but the only canoe that dumped
in the run and had a wet exit was me. However I feel redeemed
in that they are in there 30 s and younger and I hit 50 this year.

as digital downlaods...pdf files...from their website.

Anybody here speak Castilian? If you do, you'll
be in a better position than most of us to enjoy this short documentary
about Ben
Crawshaw and his Light Trow named Onawind Blue!
I'm amazed and dumbfounded by it all, naturally... Gav

Some nice boats starting about halfway through
the 10
minute film.

When I built my last boat I found it very helpful
to have a collection of other builds to look at, and in turn there
seemed to be some interest in mine, so I'll include a link here
to my Flickr navigator set in case my humble efforts could be
of use to other Navigator
builders here.
It's not a big set yet because I only started a few weeks ago,
but it will grow! Rob

Not exactly small boat stuff... But if you're anything like me
you are a bit of a dreamer and pine for that lush tropical island
just off the stern, the crystal clear turquoise blue water in
the lagoon and that cheap bottle of rum.
Here's two to wet that whistle! One
Two Don't
waste too much time!

In case it interests your viewers, there's also
a new (free) review of 9 small sailing tris now posted on my website,
written in my rather typical 'direct approach' ;-) Go to www.smalltrimarandesign.com
Happy boating !

Two Ducks had their shake down cruises yesterday
in Bastrop @ NorthShore Park. One of them was mine T.I.A.B #398
and the other was Lezlie Henson"s Iduck. Mine is a modified
Shorty Simple 18 and her's is a Storer Oz. Just thought I'd let
you know of the latest Ducky Adventures...

Thought I'd catch up after finishing my Waller
540. The Waller was a great success, incidentally-
although a bit of a handful when I'm alone. Here's
a link to some videos.
