    I will send you some photos and can offer plenty of advice its a much bigger job than is mentioned in the Bruce Roberts study plans the assembly time is probably 4 times what they estimate and i had a boatbuilder with 25 years exprience put the hull and structure together, I can say all the pieces fitted together well but the rest of the plans are very sketchy.
    I am building the boat in my own industrial workshop and already have all the equipment if you are not a boilermaker or you do not no one who can help I wouldnt tackle the project.
    Dick.

    Hi Dick,
    I've been thinking about the euro 1000 as a project.
    Sounds like it is harder than it looks.
    I would love to see yours, I'm in Sydney - where are you?
    Cheers
    John
