Hey Matthew:

Single.......... mmmmmmmm. Im about to be the same.. YES !

My dream boat would be a 40'+ leaboard scow in steel or Al. Now that
would be a beast to just beach and walk away for a day. The Alma in
SF, CA is one of the last. But way to big for single handed

* get som 3/8" CDX.
* Make a trasparency of some lines and put it on an overhead
projector. Trace the lines on heavy butcher paper taped to the
wall. Some will say the optics distort the lines. So........ fair it
wit ur i.
* Or do the transfer the table if offsets gig.
* Then stich and clue it together.
* Slap on some epoxy and cloth on the bottom and paint above the water
line. Maybe pine tar + turpintine + linseed the inside. But it get all
black and ucky. Hell, epoxy it!

Then drag it behind your 10 year old subaru down to Baja and sail the
paint off it.
Thats what I did in 1982.

Every time I look at William Garden's "Tillicum" scow schooner I
think the same thing.
