6 mths no build Dtts The SUV is coming

[tx river rat]

It has been 6 months since I started the Cuda ,been waking up at night in a cold sweet sniffing the air for sawdust fumes and glass.
I sat down today and started drawing and setting up the specs on the SUV just shy of 16 ft , I want a boat that has the good traits of the T-V and the Cuda.
My eyes are getting a little glazed foaming at the mouth a little ,yep its been too long.
Going to the box store and buy some laun tomorrow.

JD
This is going to be one of the hot air designs so it will be a little slower.I have a few things I want to try on this build.
Another thing that is going to slow this build down is fishing time is here and with my trailer ready to go some camping and running .

Yep Bob this is going to be the one.
Its weird I usually start a boat and dont look back till I finish ,I have started laying out three times on this boat and then went back to the drawing board. I know it will be 18 ft,thats locked in,now I know it will be a stripe S@G,white pine and western red ceder. It will be built with full length strips no butt splices,no stapples,same type decks as my last two builds.
The rest is still up in the air.
