In Port Townsend, Washington, there are two options - Turnpoint Design and Edensaw Woods.  Brandon, the owner of Turnpoint is really knowledgeable and does the cutting for the RowCruiser kits ...

For those in the Puget Sound area, I've had great experiences with Edensaw Woods. They stock marine plywood (although they are currently out of 4mm Okoume like everyone else) and seem to price thei...

@John P, right, I can't imagine it'll handle particularly great at high speeds. But then again, it's a Prius, and it wasn't meant to go high speeds ;-) Anyway, thanks for the feedback! @Colin Angu...

It can be hard finding decent talent for CNC cutting.  We would like to invite all builders who get their parts CNC cut locally to share the contact information and the quality of the overall ...

Hello from Germany. My name is Ralf and I've been building a row cruiser for the last year. I have a question about the sailing. Does anyone have experience with installing a roller mast system,...

Thanks Colin! Merry Chrisrtmas

Hi Dan, Here's an image that has the precise dimensions that allows you to identify the panels for the Oxford Wherry.  Good luck with that, and have a Merry Christmas.

Hello all, Need a little help solving a problem. I've just started building my Oxford and without realizing my mistake removed all 4 stickers from the #2 panels after glueing them together and can...

That all sounds pretty sound to me.  Bolting through the frames in the roof should be pretty robust.  What I've done in the past for extra large "roof objects" is simply strapped them to ...

Here are a few of my favourite bits of gear for long distance touring: 1) Navigation: My favourite way to navigate is using Navionics.  When accuracy is important, I like to leave the phone p...

A quick pic of the "Golden Pearl" helmed by her previous owner & builder. She was painted in Yamaha Racing colours, and certainly turns heads as a result! You can see the Topper sails which are...

Being the "far side of the pond" in old Blighty, it is not necessarily cost effective, quick or practical to use some of the excellent suppliers in the US for components for a build, and one area t...

While I am only a couple of months into owning my Angus SRC, I already have one eye on getting out a bit further afield next year (and beyond), so would be interested to hear the thoughts of other ...

@Jay Bonthius Sounds good, Jay! The cornering would not be such a concern for me - a low CoG to start with and your added weigh relative to that isn't so great in the grand scheme of things. B...

@Colin Angus Will do at some point next year. I have had less chance to really put "Golden Pearl" through her paces since I acquired her earlier in the year, with much of that just getting use...

I'll start posting various alternative rigs that I hear of here.  This rig here was put together by Eric from Canada.  He was very happy with the results - said it was balanced and sailed...

Hi John,  Thanks for creating this post - what a great idea.   I often get asked about alternative rigs, and sometimes hear of different rigs being used by customers.  It can so...

still available?  and where are you?   Regards, Paul

@Colin Angus thank for the feedback! On your sunrofo point, I will be able to enter the top “bedroom” directly from inside the vehicle because I'll be removing the trunk hatch. @John P...
