Justin plans to live on the boat, but has not yet set his course. Although
he has been sailing since he was a boy, he said his experience sailing on
the ocean is limited.

When asked if such a challenge worried him, the intrepid shipwright replied,
“Nervous? No, I'm not that smart.

I would like to hear more about the design of the boat. There's
certainly a large number of proven full-keel 30 foot cutter designs
out there, so why go out on a limb? Anyway it's a very impressive
achievement, I'll be looking for them (boat & builder) when passing
through that area this spring.

He needs to sell it to somebody else. He's got talent. Builds a nice boat. Somebody like
that probably won't be satisfied just sailing. People like him have to keep busy. They enjoy
the making of something better than the using of it....

Cheers,
Ellen

Duh, they don't make pennies out of copper any more. Copper the size of a penny is worth about three
cents now.

If he follows through and lives aboard, at least for a couple of years, he
will be a much better boat builder.

I agree with you on this. But he needs to sail many many miles too. If he turns into a sailor
who builds boats that's better than a carpenter who builds floating homes.


Cheers,
Ellen
