Oak is too heavy to build a catamaran out of, anyway.

I have made a page for my boat building project. It's at:

Hmm.. interesting, if I was able to get plans for a boat and build it my uncle has said he would haul it for me. It could work I suppose but rightnow i'm considering a Manta 42.

Are there any pics of yours on the web? I'd like to take a look at the bi-Rig setup.
There are no pix of a completed one as there is no completed one yet.
I have a few pix on the Easy builders site.

Thanks but I wish I could get more hours per week on her, can only manage about 25 so it will take me quite a while yet. One year down and counting.
