Re: Woods Skoota 32DM
Your bow bulb design and build has tickled my curoisity to the point that since we started cruising this year, each time I spot a cat in an anchorage, I check to see if she's got them.
I've been surprised at how many do. And invariably they look good.

Well, today was really great. Craig Watson and Patty visited and we went out on the Mississippi for a nice short midday cruise. I'll see if he sends me a pic and update the post.
It was really great meeting them.

That is one hell of a boat Dan has built! What an awesome job, and you're doing great in tweeking out the post launch issues. I hope it gives you many, many years of pleasure and pride, both of which you truly deserve.
Thanks so much for taking us for a ride! Always so cool to meet someone from this forum and see their work, especially during this adventure we are on. Was a fabulous day and Pattie and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
I'm sure you'll get the BBs dialed in and I'd be interested to see if lowering the engines a little calms the spray out back.

Always great to see that boat on the water.
