I've read Danenberg's bible on restoring wooden boats and I'm looking forward to this project.

I've called Lakes Region Wooden Boats a few times, but no answer. Was looking to pick their brain on some costs and assistance. Any other good shops or even hobbyists to recommend on a project like this?

Thanks!

Shreddy,

I hope you post progress pics here on the forum as I am sure much like myself, many would love to see!

What a great project!

Good luck with it!!

Dan
