Hi Scotty,

Couldn't reach you by email, so resorting to here....

I took you up on your offer to get the 'Instantboats' book.
Yes, I'll read it through and through 3 times. I also
ordered the book, 'Building boats with an open mind',
(available at amazon.com to look up.) The author goes
through all sorts of historical and practical boats (even
house boats), hopefully with some sketches of the plans. I
can't imagine someone writing a book about building specific
boat styles without including so much as sketches to work
from.

Thanks for you advice, Scotty. Learning is on the way,

Sandra

Anyway, this is just a suggestion in case you get no other offers,
