New project.

Well, it's been a long time since I posted anything here.  I donated the bateau to a charity auction a couple years ago.  Also moved to a different town, different job.

But, there's a new project now.

1975 Harvey dory.  These were made in Oregon for beach launch fishing at Pacific City.  All projects need a problem statement.  Here's mine.  If you own a boat with a balsa core floor, do not drill holes through the damned floor.  If you do that, you create goo.  Then a guy like me has to go in and gut/replace.  Ok, but that damage was the only reason I could afford the boat too.  Currently stripping floors out and researching replacement cores.  Balsa is still an option.  Foam is too.  Plastic honeycomb may be the current front runner.
