Do you dream of a dock on a creek with your very own fleet of small boats, most of which you designed and built? I do! #smallboats #joyofsmallboats #MaineSmallCraftCelebration (at Castine, Maine) https://www.instagram.com/p/B194iTyg4-G/?igshid=1o7w9zkme4ibi

Last year's #MaineSmallCraftCelebration was a lot of fun, looking forward to the next one in 3 weeks, September 21-22nd at Portland Yacht Services. The MSCC aims to share the joy and appreciation of Small Boats: how they can be built by anyone, enjoyed safely, and be used to attract the next generation.

Folks are asking how much bigger is the new #CalendarIslandsYawl18 It is 18' LOA 5'10" Beam deeper amidships and a flatter run aft. The #CIY16 would easily fit into the inside of the 18. The 2nd pic is the wrap around side bench which uses the #NCscarf to make it one piece. https://www.instagram.com/p/B18fgNQgHEL/?igshid=a4cn4ugkvfll

Still dreaming about Deer Isle Cruise 2019. These two sail one of the first kits I ever cut, Fran莽ois Viver's #ilur the famous Waxwing by John Hartman. It's been great getting to be friends with them and finally cruise with them. My amazing partner in crime @nicketakis was key to making the trip a success, so glad she was a part of it. I wish for anyone wanting to learn more about these boats, come to the @mainesmallcraftcelebration September 21-22 and learn about the boats, their use, and the people that design, build, and use them. https://www.instagram.com/p/B1yQTUqgsI1/?igshid=1dp9l9q42v05u

From this to this, #CompassSkiff kits are shipping. She is a great little family boat for getting on the water, fishing, or use as a tender. #completeboatkit #CompassSkiff #buildyourowndinghy #outboardskiff (at Chase Small Craft) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1e8oftgiTF/?igshid=1u2s43f3tdckr

Summer can be a challenge getting all the design, building and cutting time in. Yesterday Jia came with me to the shop and spent the afternoon in Val Troyli Artist's studio doing watercolors. I nested geometry for CNC cutting. Which do you think is more satisfying? (at Chase Small Craft) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1RZXIMAo5Y/?igshid=155fsbtlabfpu

If you haven't seen it, @offcenterharbor did a nice feature video on the #goatislandskiff I have worked with @boatmik for years and offer beautiful kits for the boat, including a yawl version. The 2nd shot is the original #GISsailing in Australia. https://www.instagram.com/p/B1OZtr2AuS-/?igshid=137odcw1fv8zv
