Not a lot of background, but a lot of interest... I hope to homebuild at some point. Probably a monohull, but some of the power cats are pretty slick and have some good ideas and possibilities, so I figured I would check things out there also. I've been a subscriber on your other lists (TWL and Great Loop) for a long time, but haven't been on the power cat list for some reason. If it matters, I have a little boating info/blog page at http://www.craftacraft.com that I've been adding some stuff to recently. Thanks for running these lists! I enjoy them and get a lot of information. Bruce Bruce C. Dillahunty bdillahu@peachbush.com http://www.craftacraft.com -------------------------------------- Welcome aboard, Bruce! Good luck with your build-it-yourself mission and thanks for the link to an interesting site. --Georgs -- Georgs Kolesnikovs Power Catamaran World launches in January 2007 http://www.powercatamaranworld.com
