I can attest to that, after all it was my dock!



We
have a dinghy that I designed & built, and consider it as close to
perfect for our uses as could be: it is very easy to row, stable, and
looks like a classic lapstrake pulling boat.


It is a great dink, and don't forget Hank looks great in it! Unfortunatly
the Crapton wouldn't like it, it's not made of GRP, I guess he hasn't
heard of carbon fiber yet.

I think GRP includes carbon fiber unless you don't add any resin to the
carbon fiber cloth, that is. Doh!

Could not have stated it better myself. Good job!
