Le Rochefort 1787 Harbor Yacht 1:36 by Bill-R

Hi Brad. Thanks for looking in. I will be honored to have you along on the journey.

Hi Paul. I'm right there with you. You might have noticed, I didn't say I understand the plans. :) I'm just going to start building and if it turns out looking like a ship when I'm finished that's a plus. ;)

Use other's build logs, the info there is more valuable than any other. Print out pictures etc. Scrolling logs is very time consuming sometimes but so is making mistakes or compounding mistakes till failure !
 
Wow, hi Bill, it's great to have you actively involved! Since we're a small group of fantastic home builders, we're happy to help. If you have any questions, feel free to contact any of us. Wishing you a happy Easter, see you soon!
 
Hello everyone,

Before I actually start to cut wood, I have been reading reading through all of the great Le Rochefort builds. I am grateful for being able to take advantage of all of the beautiful work that has been done before getting. I don't think I would be able to navigate through the build without the guidance from everyone's work. For once my procrastination and fear of getting started has helped. In the short time that I have spent reading the various build logs, I have been able to clear up several questions that I had even with the beginning of the build.

Thanks,
Bill
