How to use this section.

This section is so that those who are having a boat built can update on progress and share ideas. This is designed to be a diary or 'blog' rather than a discussion, so please observe the following.

- Only one thread (topic) per boat built.
- The author of the thread should provide the name of the builders (where applicable) and any other relevant information

This section is designed so that the author can update on progress as their boat is being built, so that their. experiences can be shared. Replies to the topic should only be by the author, or by other members when a directly relevant point needs to be made. Please post any other topics and requests for help in the boat building and maintenance forum.
