    whats going on guys. Just wanted to shake everyones hand as I am a new member and what not.

    Im a 23 year old in the great state of texas. Somehow I decided I was going to build boats...Whats better right?

    So i found a program called hulls, designed a boat, ordered supplies from the web and got to building. I am almost finished with it! So exciting! It will be a sad day when i sell her, but the next one is for me then more to sell.

    I decided to do composite stitch and glue style construction after much research. The boat is a 13' car topper boston whaler style hull. Right now im finishing glassing the outside, then I will fair and paint and take to the high seas.

    Basically I was wondering if anyone has any advice for a young man with big dreams.
