[kayu]

I started blowin the dust of a few unfinished projects last few weeks.....a bit of everything........between 5' 6" shorties , through to 10' 6" logs.......this ones 5'-11" by 18 1/4".........its designed for a quad with mckee set-up (15" tail , double concave)......will have installed fin system for conveniance.....fins not supplied......

[kayu]

Oh yeah , its been shaped and sealed since the above photo , and ready for installs and glassing...........its currently weighing at 4lb , so it should glass at around 5.5 lb...........

^^ add an inch to the width and that's pretty much my go-to set up these days

Ive done a few at 19" dUg , but this board was put aside a few years back , and pulled down from the rafters recently.......it probably has a tad more volume under the chest than a wider board to compensate....it's also got more area through the tail , and less up front....

With tax time upon us

I would love know if you eva got one those wooden kit boards ready sell

I got a few done at the time Fong , then got busy , and put them on the backburner again........they are another project that I'm hoping to get back to soon....I'll keep you posted.

Hey Kayu mate - Is that a really big wing way up there? She'd be a loose goose for some whippersnapper.

I love wood.

When I come visit someday, i'll whip you into order to get those projects done!

....lookin forward to it Josh.....finishing off all the "experimentals" is part of my new " clean it all up" policy........I still got pieces of wood I been cartin' around from 3 factories ago...(lol).....you know the drill.

Oh yes, I do! I recently got the boot from my cavernous great old farm shed, and I've had move to a set-up with a fraction of the space - Loads of little things I had room for were suddenly not so precious.

I went back once, to see what the landlady had done with my junk - she'd had to pay crew to pile it up, a stack as high as me and like 50m circumference! I'm just happy I cost the bee-hatch something!

Anyway, as you were...

[speedneedle]

Are they of any interest to either of you?

The most definately would have been, my being a wood-loving wood lover...

Alas that distance away is too much. But ta.

Nick Carroll is apparently quite fond of Huon pine. You should ask him

[alakaboo]

Fong I know a guy who is keen. Got his own truck and gear.
When do they need to be picked up? He has to drive a fair way.

[speedneedle]

My mobile is now a very small artificial reef.

[kayu]

I've found a pile of Huon pine planks. Lengths of 6ft to 20ft by 10 inches wide, largely de nailed. In a slipway close by you Kaya. I believe they could be purchased very cheaply.
Are they of any interest to either of you? I'm only interested in the boat .

(PM sent).....so , a boat frame 20' plus , made of Huon pine ?......

[alakaboo]

My mate doesn't want them anymore Fong
