Ed's Prospector in Conecticut
Jack,
The boat is coming along great except that I going to need to mill more D&*^ strips. Ah
well.... it's all part of the fun. Weaving the strips to get the end designs was time
consuming but a lot of fun.
Fiberglass is done on the outside. I have a few drools to deal with but I’m ready to roll
this over and finish the inside.
Thought you would like to see the finished product. I used Purple Heart for the plugs
and breasthook details. I like the way it added a little color. I’ll probably sand down the
outer hull and put on a few more coats of varnish some rainy day but it was just time
to get the boat in the water. Finished it weighs 57 pounds and paddles nice. Can’t wait
to take her fishing.
Thank you. Ed
