“Russell & Ashlyn \u00a0 I wanted to let you know that we finally finished our PT11 dinghy. \u00a0 And although we haven\u2019t sailed it yet in warm water, we have tested it out in CO.\u00a0 My wife has proclaimed rowing it is \u201coargasmic\u201d. \u00a0So I am very happy to have built it, and thankful to you for such an awesome design, kit and instructions. ” JB<\/p>\n

“Back in the late 60’s, Tim Buckley put out a delightful album titled “Happy\/Sad”. That somewhat describes my state of mind these days: I’m very happy to have completed my PT-11 and beyond happy at how exquisitely it rows and sails. But I’m also sad at not having more shop time and the learning that came with its building. In all my years of construction and car restoration, I have never had a project which I enjoyed as much (except sanding the fillets). So I want to express my appreciation to the two of you for the design, support, and unbelievably complete construction manual.” RS<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

“As you can see, my maiden voyage was a row with my wife- then I went out sailing on my own. I hadn’t built the bailer bungee, so the bailer was in one of the compartments, tied in with a long line. Needless to say I capsized and couldn’t get to it, but since I was pretty close to shore I discovered that the Spear sails pretty decently fully swamped. I tipped out the water on the beach and then had a great sail. Back on the beach a crowd was formed to see the nut sailing in November in Nantucket, but as soon as they saw the interior the questions started- what kind of wood is that? What kind of varnish did you use to get that awesome finish (er, well, none yet).” DS<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
