Slider has a website

For anyone who might be interested in my 16 foot minimalist open cruising cat Slider, I've put up a small website at:

http://slidercat.com/

There are photos, videos, specs, and a discussion of why I wanted to design a tiny open cat with comfortable in-hull seating. There's also a thoroughly biased description of what a great little boat Slider has turned out to be.

Still no plans, but I'm drawing.

Thanks, Jim and Manie, for the very kind words.

As I mentioned, I'm drawing plans, and I just about have the first page done, after several days of feverish scratching with a pencil. I'll probably just put the first page up on the site as a minimalist study plan, rather than charging folks some small amount for something that costs nothing to provide via the web.

I'll let you know when it's up.

Manie, the kids are a wild bunch-- 15, 17, and 20. They seem to have good hearts and wise heads, for which I'm grateful.

Ray
