    Erik,

    You can make informed choices about your next boat, just reading the following sites. They all advocate the use of wood that is completely saturated in epoxy resin, to build vessels that are light strong, tough, quick, and reasonably priced.:D The last three site describe the methods used by major custom builders to construct the boat for you. The WEST system http://www.westsystem.se/ is your guarantee that you will not be disappointed with your efforts. In fact, if you build the boat big enough to live aboard, you can sell the summer house and cruise the archipelago.
