That's a very pretty boat :-)
Hello PAR I've been looking at Chiusa and Egress. They are both lovely boats. What is the assembly method? Would I have difficulty building one...
Well, I emailed the objections raised to the designer, and he confirmed that they were correct. It seems that this is a boat not meant to move...
