Here's a website by a fellow named Ray
Jardine who has developed quite a few
products related to camping, kayaking, and treking. He sells these products as diy kits on his website. Anyhow, it is an
interesting site by an interesting guy.

I love to listen to Noel and Christy's Furled Sails. Every guest is asked the question about why they love sailing.  Well, it got me to thinking that I should pursue this idea for my self.  So I decided to do a short essay on Why I Sail.

I am very happy to report I had a lot of fun building a One Sheet Skiff and in the process made some friends (with benefits; ie free oars!).

The pictures can be found here.
