Awesome.

Looking forward for another great year of subscription
Robert Patterson says:
Red lead is either hard or impossible to come by. What do you use on the stem after shaping? I assume to minimize checking?
Peter Buxton says:
You can still get Red Lead
Walter Allan says:
Very clear and concise. Continually amazed at the amount of work, for instance, the stop-waters. Thanks for doing this series.
Ed Altonji says:
I’m enjoying the very practical approach Peter uses. This is already my favorite OCH series for a power boat and I’ve seen them all. It’s tied with the Caledonia, my other favorite! Peter – thank you. OCH – keep doing what you’re doing!

This series alone is more than worth the entire year’s subscription cost.
Paul Drinan says:
