I hope you can finish soon. This looks like a really fun boat to do some beach cruising on. With the alternate centerboard it would be a good one for the Gulf coast.

The SDG organisation have a campsite near Port Blanc (loaned by EDF) where one can stay for €10/night including breakfast. Fixed tents, quite cumfy. Many hard core slept on their boats though. The event was a delight, welcome everywhere, even if the weather made it tricky in the early days. It is very much for the participants, rather than the spectators (Brest 08?) I saw a little GIS type keenly sailed (and rowed) by a 2 man crew. They won the Gp 2 race. The rig was a unstayed carbon pole and two rowing positions on 12/13ft?

Although, truth be told, MIK has produced such an easy build design that it is only because the shed is so cold and uninviting that I havn't finished her yet. I still have a couple of weeks to finish the basic hull. Hope to load some pix shortly if I can work the newfangled Broadband out. Hi Chris,
