So for a change of pace, I messed with Dave's windshield idea. One of the www.bateau.com forum members went out of his way to design a Duvall-style windshield for me. Nice guy. I tried roughing it in just to see how it would turn out with a little 2x fir and a couple little battens of ply to give shape to where the glass would go.
Here it is!
I think it looks pretty snazzy myself, so it will go forward in real mahogany here shortly. I might even bright finish it, just to prove to people it really is a wood boat.
Other things are eating up a little of my boatbuilding time such as a fishing competition over at www.washingtonlakes.com . The comp requires an o-tay sign, so thats why Im making the hand gesture with all the fish in the photos.

Its a life, but someone has to live it I guess.
