Since I've started construction on Ian Oughtred's 11' 9" Acorn Skiff, I'm finding that a lot of the work in building a boat is getting ready to do something that is actually work on the boat. One month in, the ratio is about 200:1. Before I forget too much and just in case I build another, here is what I'm up to. Oh, this is a picture of the boat from the Wooden Boat Store.
