Build one... You can make very nice wooden boats. My dad built ours when we were younger with a little bit of help from us when I was in 5th Grade.

Ours is the second one down. Having a dad talented in sign making and gold leaf, pinstriping etc etc is what made it different than any other one out there. That pic is from 2001

Good looking boat, John, but would it not float with people in it? I thought the point of a boat was to keep you out of the water. LOL

We've had our whole family in it (6) it does quite nicely. My dad went over the top with it. All sorts of mahogany, the wood for the braces in the back were purchased from a tree farm in Maine. Fiber-glassed the entire sides, not just the seams. I can't tell you how many times we have been stopped and asked questions on it. A neighbor, very wealthy, insisted on buying it, my dad had no way with that More of a piece of art thank anything. I have some good pics I'll dig up

I bet it's nice! I don't think it'd fare too well being dragged over stumps bass fishing though.

No that is very true... best stick to the non wood boats then, I forgot that is what you were planning on. You'll find one

Been working extended hours at Target, usually do 24-28 hours there and then my bus job at school. This week I'm pushing 40. I'm wiped, later fellas

Move to Texas and you can eliminate that chore.
