I am pretty sure that this has been brought up some in the forum, but I don't see it here in the Wish List.
I would also like to see the Southwind with the longest length possible with only one splice in the panels and at about the width of the long Southwind.

Guys when it's a slow month, I just email Mick and say "How about a new boat" and then my expenses get magically covered. :lol:


No not really. But Mick has quite a few of my plans. Now of I could just get him to build that tunnel-hull pirogue idea I had.... :twisted:

Guess I am gonna have a busy year 8) :lol:

Seriously though, I have run out of room in my shed at the moment. So builds will slow down for a little while.

I believe in the Wind range of boats. My Southwind is every thing I could ask for in a sea capable, expedition boat and will do absolutely anything I would want from a paddle craft. I think one at 15' X 28" would be a definate winner with its simpler build and more manageable length.

I need to build a T-V for my friend and an Okwata just cause I want to and also a nice little pack type canoe, just cause I want one and such a boat simply does not exist here. but a Wind in the above size specs would appeal to many with the slim lines and performance of a very good kayak and accessability and capacity approaching that of a canoe. How could such a concept not be a winner? 8)
