Gonna build a Tollman Skiff
I have just ordered nearly $1000 in epoxy and glass and fillers for
this project so I guess I am either committed or should be committed to an insane asylum. I will attempt to build a 20' Tollman Skiff although I am still not sure what I will use to power her. How many boats does a person need? I can blame the people in this group for contributing to this insanity by providing encouragement. Still, I suppose it beats drinking,womanizing or sports cars. With 2 MiniCup sailboats, a canoe, a homemade dinghy, a 28' sailboat an inflateable kayak and a Laser sailboat I am rebuilding, maybe a 20' power boat isnt too excessive......or is it? |

Hi and welcome to the builder's club! It's fun and you won't regret it.
Just for your information, there's also a Yahoo group set up for Tolman builders: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/tolmanskiff Stop by ...lots of builders there and they share all the info you ask for and a lot more ...sigh. It's a good group. Brian PS: BTW, you need 39 boats. It's just a rule. wrote in message ups.com...

could be worse. I own 20 small boats.... How do you decide which one to use? I've only made 5 and tend to use the exsisting 4 in rotation to be fair to the boats. I like and enjoy them all. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ William R Watt National Capital FreeNet Ottawa's free community network homepage: www.ncf.ca/~ag384/top.htm warning: non-FreeNet email must have "notspam" in subject or it's returned |
