I'm back! So that CLC Expedition Wherry I built three years ago... Sold! My wife now wants me to make her a new rowing boat that is much lighter than her current Whitehall Spirit 14 (which weighs hundreds of pounds... it's the original fiberglass version). Therefore I have just ordered the CLC Annapolis Wherry. It will arrive on September 5th at the Port Townsend Wooden Boat Festival so that I can get free shipping. Yay! Should be a quality boat. I've seen several and they look great. I added the scuppered inwale option too. Won't arrive for another month, and then September is already pretty full, so likely won't start building until October. Stay tuned!
I've become a horrible blogger! So lazy. I haven't posted for ages but kept on working on my boat. Now it's done! Ta Da! Seven coats of Pettit Flagship 2015 varnish followed by a polishing Interlux 404/414 Primekote primer followed by four coats of Interlux Perfection "Snow White". If I find the energy I may post more of the build pictures, but for now... I'm done! Aloha!
