Follow the links to see the whole process, the boat is gorgeous, more like a work of art, it is a catboat like the one I made, but much more delicate. The planking is lighter and the ribs are 1/4 the size ours were. I wonder if the sail area on their boat has to be diminished to compensate for the lack of weight?
