Opening Thoughts

I am hooked on boats, but have not yet found one to keep 'forever'. I love my double kayak and have taken it everywhere. I have had a series of sailboats too and currently sail a 19' Alacrity. Great boat for day sailing and has a decent little cabin custom made for lounging and camping.
But I want to do more shore exploring so have decided on Walkabout, designed by John Welsford: http://www.jwboatdesigns.co.nz/plans/walkabout/index.htm
This blog will be about the building of the boat and eventually the trips aboard. Gerry
