    Hi,

    Located thread but going down a different route. I am looking for a copy of an ocean rowing boat plan or looking to buy a second hand ocean rowing boat. Not in any rush, want to find a similar designed boat to Roz Savages...the Woodvale Solo.

    Cheers :)

    CLCboats.com has a sliding seat shell. Not as minimal as the racing ones.

    i helped a few teams build and paint the old BT Challenge? boats.

    I'd suggest you go visit www.govisitashrink.com :)

    I'm all for a challenge but after hearing their stories and reading the papers in last months I can think of better challenges.

    Best of luck.

    ps train your bum. By all accounts this is hardest aspect of the ordeal (the rowing that is. The building is easy). On the plus side, if you are ever taking in by the CIA, waterboarding won't frighten you:)
