Surprise! The powers that be have decided HTML doesn't work here. If you want to post pics, you have to use the archaic IMG syntax.
Looks great Joel. Nice meeting you last weekend.

Great project Joel. Glad you could come by. Maybe when we visit Ken we can see your boat, too.

thanks guys for the replies. i would be glad to have anyone stop by, although if you visit ken then me you would see two very different spectrums of wooden boats i think. kens work is engineered perfection and just amazing to behold. im just putting wood together..haha
Nice pictures and nice to meet you. Please convey my congratulations to your photographer, clearly someone who likes you.

It's looking great Joel.:) :) :)
As for photos of mine, hmmm! Perhaps I'll wait for the Maine contingent to visit and let them post photos.:D
Not much progress lately, but I could post a photo of the steering wheel I got last week on ebay.:)

Joel,
Is that the Sparkman/Stevens design? Do you know who the builder was? I do a lot of research on the PennYan boat company and records show they built several 'SeaBirds', however I only know the wearabouts of one.
