I like this boat. If I were a bit younger I would make one.
Fair sea boat, but that's ok.
I'll bet you could 20mpg if you power and prop it right.

I saw one once up in Maine near Southwest Harbor. It was nicely
finished and with a *very* interesting look to it.

Yeah, who else but Bolger? I had a guy come up from the south on
vacation years ago and he stopped by my shop as part of his trip. He
had brought his first boat up on a trailer to show me. It was a
smaller version of this type of hull, I forget the name off hand but
it was a Bolger something. Could be it was a good tool for his use but
I must admit, it was about the silliest thing I had ever seen in my
mind... Lately I have been drawing and studying more Gardner hulls,
but sometimes a box is just the right tool for the job. RIP Phil,
sorry I never met you.

Looks easy to build, and light for its length. Hull seems efficient
to move along.
Some think the Pontiac Aztec is ugly.
I think it's "cute." Makes me smile when I see one. Sometimes I even
break out laughing.

Harry will be here in a minute to tell you about all of the classic
boat builders that he and his dad used to know, have over for dinner,
etc. Then of course comes the part where he, and no one else but he,
knows all there is to know about boat building.

Scows are shaped like the lid of a shoebox. They were the fastest
thing around for the best part of a century. Thirty mph sailboats made
of wood. A scows are 38 feet and 1850 pounds. There are now catamarans
with cutting edge technology that may be faster, but only lately,

Hasn't quite figured out that *he* is now the older generation.

Yet he has no "my son" or "my daughter" stories for obvious reasons.

Hey Dan, I think you're the only guy here with a job. I hope so.
Hate to think any of these jokers are posting from work.
When I was working, I wouldn't even think of farting around on
newsgroups. Waited until I got home.
Found it better than beating the dog or wife.
But that's just me.
