She is beautiful! You must be very proud. Have you had a chance to form an impression of how she handles under sail and oar?
I really love the traditional good looks of these handsome sharpies. I am planning on building a small sail/rowing boat to keep on a mooring on the Rideau river (Ontario, Canada) in front of my house, and right now its a toss up between the Chesapeake Crabbing skiff, your and Doug Hylan's versions under consideration, or Gavin Atkins' Light Trow. You've just made my decision verrry difficult now...

Thanks, Jackrabbit- For my initial impressions, see the latest post titled Sea Trials. She's fun to sail and is everything I'd hoped for.
