What a cool yacht! What an even cooler yacht-builder!
“. . . There is a certain amount of insanity in building a boat single handed. I know I’m a candidate for one of those funny little white coats with the strange sleeves. I’m probably more insane than most because I’ve never been on a sailboat. I just know this is what I must do. I’ve considered the risks and can’t wait to get started with the project. I do believe a word of caution may be in order for anyone that may be reading this. I am single with no close living next of kin. My insanity may go unnoticed because of the lack of any close eyes observing my behavior. Your circumstances may be different and have a different outcome. I assume no responsibility. This page may not change very fast due to the small amount of free time I’ll have to update it. On cold and rainy days I try to work on the page. Good days will be spent working on the boat, provided I have money or materials to work with. Somewhere in there I’ll have to find time to go to work and earn money to buy material for the boat, food, pay the bills and taxes. I knew there was a down side to everything. . . .”

That’s pretty cool. Ugh, reading Walden for English class and beinning to hate Thoreau, but that is a nifty quote nonetheless.
