So cool . Great boat.Good vid .Love squar rigs.Good job.

When I look at all the effort that goes into model boats and I think how for a bit less effort and a few bigger bits of wood you could have had something worth sailing in I will now be able to think about your boat too. 11 out of 10 for effort and pure magic.

I also love the building blog and will be using some of the ideas on my projects.

what hull did you build this onto? or was it all hand built keel to masthead? neat idea.!

[Trice901]

odaysailor I thought I had responded to you but I don't see one so I sorry for the long delay but yes it was all hand built from keel to mast head, If you go to the web site cited in the description of this video you can see detailed pictures of how she was built. Sorry again for the delay

This is just quirky enough and just pretty enough to be absolutely charming. I bet kids love this boat....great eccentric fun! Cheers! :-)

Aren't you on a ride at a theme park?

[Trice901]

@2002And

Yes, I am on a ride at a theme park. The only thing that's a little unusual is that I own the theme park and I built it..

LOL. U noobs should look at the video details. There is a link the website.

What a fantastic idea, a mini square rigger. I'm drawing up plans now :)

[Trice901]

I looked up noobs and there are two very different definitions - what is it for you?

Drawing up the plans is the hard work, the rest just takes time :)

[LigerZer077]

noob - Newbie, is an online slang term for a newcomer, or someone with little knowledge of a given activity or topic.
