Surf boards? No thanks

Gary- a Mill Creek 13 - would look very cool on that truck and fabricating it would be right up your alley. https://clcboats.com/products/mill-creek-13. Your truck with a wooden kayak or canoe on it would be the hot ticket at the Annual Wooden Boat Show in Port Townsend. Slap a sign on the side of the truck “Orcas Island Outfitters” and you’re in business! Les

Thanks Neighbor, but I stay plenty busy in my woodshop, listening to my music and keeping warm by the woodstove, so I'd probably sink a second business. In fact I am absolutely swamped with work right now, having just put in a 61 hour week. A Seattle design firm contacted me about building eleven extremely time consuming custom interior doors that will be shipped to a project being built on Mink Island in Desolation Sound, which is maybe a couple hours North of Vancouver BC. Hoping to ship late next week so I can jump on the list of my work for more of my local clients. Note to any younger guys ... "Put money aside for the future". I looked at the Kayak plans, and looks like a very cool and very practical example of a kayak. Alas, once get through my list, it's back to my 20' inboard Shamrock project. The hope is to, like last year, take whole the summer off. Crabbing with the grandkids is high on the list. They all live in Seattle and as a crab pot breaks the surface, the delight on their faces is worth a fortune (the one I didn't amass) But I wouldn't change a thing. Ok, back down to the door factory. Never thought I'd miss the days when I had 3 or 4 employees
