    Sure, I know those designs... Didn't a Core Sound 20 win that...hmm....shallow water rally, I can't say the name of it...a couple of years ago?

    I just want a non-hard-chine boat, that looks a little more traditional even if I'm building it in stitch-and-glue.

    Yep, the Everglades Challenge and Graham was sailing it. Won the last two year (one overall, one class) in his new EC22. I'm about to start building his Diva2 kayak.

    In a democracy it's your vote that counts; in feudalism, it's your Count that votes.

    He has written a book on building his Acorn Dinghy (my personal favourite design, one day...). Some of his plans are availiable through Woodenboat magazine.

    Oh, the Acorn dinghy is seriously pretty. I'd love one!

    Come in 3 designed lengths, 7'6", 10'2" and 13'. Wonder if the small one could work as a tender to your sail boat?

    I think it'd be a riot to have the 7' 6" trailing behind my boat for a tender. Sure, it'd work....

    have to wait until I get another "big boat" though, and that might be a long, long time.
