@Kellan Hatch I'm in an unheated storage shed, while only slightly warmer. I'm not really sure how I'm going to get much progress done on items too big to bring home with me

@Thomas Krische be my guest!

It looks like you're just a little ahead of me. It will be fun to compare notes. I'm likely to slow down a little bit now, since the temperature is getting down into the 20s and I'm trying to keep ...

I didn't even know they had a kickup feature now. Very impressive. You got a fantastic deal! They have tripled in price since I bought my earlier model new, back in the Neolithic, for $300-somethin...

@Kellan Hatch Somehow I missed your question. I've never even seen a mirage drive in person, so this will be a learning experience for me

@Kellan Hatch I also have hatches to give access to the flotation chambers. I'm definitely going to be "tactically acquiring" your idea to improve the access holes

I decided to postpone laying the decks and focus first on the cockpit because I will be doing some customization in the cabin and aft compartment that will be much harder once the decks are in plac...

Dry-fitting the cockpit components:

For access to the under-seat flotation areas I am going to put rectangular access hatches in the center of each seat. I enlarged the two partial bulkheads to make it easier to place objects into th...

Here's the simple jig I made to glue and square the quarter knees:

When I flipped the hull, I realized that I had a problem. My #1 panels had shifted slightly (one a bit lower at the aft tip than the other) which resulted a slight starboardward curve in the skeg. ...

Hello Dennis - The boats are shipped by UPS and the cost of the Oxford Wherry kit to your location is $116.  The Expedition is $159.  You certainly can pick them up at location, but the c...

Colin, I am interested in either the oxford wherry or the expedition. What are the approximate build times for each boat? What is the delivery cost of a kit to Salem Oregon, 77302? Can I pick it up...

Well, after literal hours of searching, I found a mirage 180 kick up  w/turbo fins for $200 off. Success! 

Do you have much experience with the Mirage Drive? I fitted one in my CLC Mill Creek 16 and it was fantastic. The RowCruiser is a much larger boat, so I will be curious to see how it performs. The ...

Congratulations on your graduation!!Recently I started playing online slot machines on this site - https://slotscity.ua/slots , and this site is very simple and easy to play slot machines and I lik...

I know I'll want to reinforce it quite heavily to  redistribute the loads. But without a mirage drive in hand I'm stuck for now. Can't close the float chambers without reinforcing. Can't reinf...

Mirage drive / board case mocked up.    

It lasted one whole day before collapsing. Here is cradle Mk3. I definitely want to get in my boat, but I'm not sure about my weight unsupported by the water as well as my design skills

The two attached to the hull and the partial bulkheads are glued in. The rest are just there for moral support
