Hello
in the gettingStartdet no1 is written there will be some more Information about how to add a Sail to the Lumberyard Skiff.
My Question would be - where this part have been explained - in which WB Magazin?
Thanks for your feedback
sincerly

Vincent, Maynard is still working on his sailing rig. I built my own from learning from this forum and my own guess work. My LYS sails just fine. I may add more sq. ft. to my next sail. Maybe 48sq.ft. next time. I like to sail in light winds, 8 to 12 knots. Speed is not for me, a nice cruise is just fine.

Hello Jimmy
thanks for your Information - the first question would be how have you done to have the Mast standing?
i am asking because i started to build it Skiff and if there is something i could do now - would be better then to fix it after :D

Vincent, I installed the mast in the front deck. I added one more 1x6 board to the deck for this purpose. You can see in my photo. Hope this helps?
