Getting to the end of the to do list. Mounted my oarlock holders and cleats, and have one more coat of white paint remaining. Will need to put her on the water to determine final oarlock height for me.

Thank you Jeff. She is all done and ready for a splash next week. Really lovely design to put together. Named her Honu ( Hawaiian for sea turtle).

Congratulations for finishing such a good looking boat. Please let us know the weight and make a lot of pictures of the splashing and the first row.

Beautiful boat. This build, from first to last, has been one of my favourites. Lovely work.

PapaDave, how did Honu's splash go? Again, congrats on a lovely build. :D
