not out the woods yet by any stretch of the imagination! Luckily had some very good friends propping me up along the way!(who i am greatly indebted to!) with whom without ,this boat wouldnt of been completed. A major underestimation on my part when undertaking this project! BUT..... she's here now so onward and upward............
Thanks for everyones comments

FWIW I think the boat looks very impressive and I hope to have a proper look at it at Allhallows. I also think LHD works very well for ski racing.
