Hi everyone - first post , but been reading and learning from from posts for last few months. Three months to go to launch of my first boat ( Nexus catamaran 58 ft ). Started project in 2005 and building in 2006. Lots of questions - see you on the forums. David

Welcome Aboard David!

Wow...thats a big cat your building. Do you have some pictures to share? These must be some exciting times for you, right before launch.

After waiting three years the last three months seem like the longest, but yes, exciting and daunting. Have created an album called DL58 catamaran with some pics - hope it works! David

Hey where did those pesky pics go? OK, they ended up under my personal profile

Great pics...what a gorgeous looking catamaran. Thanks for sharing those...you've GOT to be itching to finish, I can't imagine.

Fair winds,
