Glen,

Thank you for responding to my post. I am a life long woodworker and a
teacher of computer graphics in a new jersey high school. I have to
complement you on your boat project and the website that you designed
to depict it. I thought long and hard on building a wooden sail, and
read a great deal about it, ultimately did not do because ididn't have
the time to do it right. My favorite book on the topic was written by
Bud Macintosh a New England boat builder.

Relative to my project I haven't decided yet on sail drive or
traditional but I have decided on Beta Marine instead of Yanmar
basically because of the price difference, engine service ability when
installed, and I like Kubota engines.

Sincerely, Leo Lotowycz

Continued success with your project, you are certainly a motivational
force to all of us.
