BMT Posted September 30, 2022 #1 Posted September 30, 2022 A very late starter to this craft, I am looking forward to the learning experience. I just finished my first ship. Lowell Grand Banks dory. It was a good experience for me, and I look forward to my next building the Norwegian Sailing Pram. BMT GrandpaPhil, druxey, Edwardkenway and 8 others 11 Quote
