    I've been building a 21' center console offshore fishing boat for a few years and just discovered this forum.

    My progress is pretty well documented to date at http://www.boatstobuild.com.

    I hope it will be of some value to others to see what I've done.

    Enjoy-
    Mike

    Looking good there, welcome to the forum! down here we tend to be a bit free and easy and chatter a bit but up in the 'Highbrow' area there's lots of good advice about most everything to do with boats, freely and wisely given. Well worth the time spent - some of these guys are the best in the world! there's some chaff amongst them but mostly (even those who sling the mud) they'll do everything possible to help you with a problem! You may not like some of the answers but they are well intentioned and usually right or very close to it! Enjoy!! But don't let it get in the way of the building!!
