Many years ago, I had a chance to take some sailing lessons and was able to use the boats from the university's outing club. Since then, I've always wanted my own boat. After looking at the possibilities, I decided that building a Northeaster Dory from a kit was my best chance. Not only could I sail it, but I could row it with either a fixed seat or sliding seat. Building it is only the first challenge; then I'll need to learn sculling and re-learn sailing.

Cut out the foam to put under the stern seat
I cut out three pieces of foam to fit under the seat.
April 9, 2011 Put another coat of epoxy on the flotation blocks, and put epoxy on the wood supports for the thwarts. Also, I cut out three pieces of foam to fit under the stern seat. It was such an odd shape, I couldn't make them fit as tight as I wanted with the piece of foam that I had left.
