Fantastic pics, man!

Jeez, she's a lovely craft.

Every time I check out your blog here, my boatbuilding bug starts biting me again - hard. These pics have him chewing furiously.

Steve said...

Thanks Fernando for the mention. Happy Holidays.

I'll never get tired of looking at pictures of Spartina. I want to sail on that boat! I know how to get to Chesapeake. First I have to drive over my favorite bridge-tunnel in the world. Regardless of the direction I'm driving, I always wish it took longer to get to the other side.

Steve said...

I know that bridge well.
There's a spot on the boat for you. Here, eastern shore, NC waters. We'll get you out somewhere along the line.

What about a sister ship in the Caribbean... Beautiful she is. Congratulations.

Steve said...

A sister ship in the Caribbean - what a great idea! I think several of JW's designs would be perfect down there.

Hi Steve,

I hope all is well with you :) Just wanted to send a note to say thank you for sharing all the great info. Learned a lot. I've taken a lot of it and put it into a sort of guide that I'm preparing for a trip from Lake Ontario, down to Panama. I'm much further ahead of the game than I would have been without blogs like yours.

Best wishes,
