On one visit he wasn’t there yet so His friend at his worksite chatted. He said he saw Chris on a step ladder staring at the boat. What are you doing? The answer was something like just imagining or creating!

Boatbuilding is 10% thinking, 10% building and 80% sanding

Tribute is starting a 72. They build. You write the check.

Now we mere mortals can go a few different ways.
Cash, credit, or second mortgage.

I like cash.

Check? Whats that?!

Theres probably 5k in materials in the boat. The shit that makes it go is what really costs money! If I could stroke a check, theyd be one of the only places id have build me one haha

I dont keep receipts unless its something i might return. Sleep better at night that way :)
But looking at all the junk out there going for 40k really makes me sleep better...

Facts!

When the wife asks. Oh I had that already. Or it was cheap. Bless her heart when she goes out she even asks me what kind of sandpaper I need...

Man, that's going to be a sweet hull...

I've been going back through this build and Squidlips and was wondering why you didn't core the hull sides this time around? I'm on the fence trying to decide if I'm going to core mine.
