Never really covered the boat much over the last ten years or so and

plywood side, and there be a hole in the bow.

So, ten years ago I spent 450 dollars on materials and paint, and had
a nice boat for 45 dollars a year. Not bad. Time to build another one

On that vein, I have been getting an itch now that Jess is starting to
move beyond my capabilities to work with her... The spring I moved to
take care of my dad, I was just getting the material together for a
build of a 20 foot river cruiser... It might be time to bring those
old lines out and take another look..

How big was this boat? Water (from any source) is tough on plywood -
even marine plywood.


16 foot, plywood skiff...
