Plywood.... and lots of it!

Presenting the first 5 boats of the Portland i550 fleet!


Some assembly required. :)


After their long journey from Colorado, the plywood kits finally arrived today. They're not much to look at right now, but the plan is for things to start moving quickly now. We have two bays rented from Rivers West, so we will be building two in parallel. Hopefully the stars will align for us a little and we'll be able to get at least one out on the water for the summer.

Here's another shot of one of the bays. It's surrounded by plastic sheeting, which should (hopefully) allow us to keep it warm enough for epoxy.

There will be more pictures and more updates as things move along, but for now I'm excited and just wanted to share.

Thank you, Susan and Tim at Watershed Sailboats, for all your help!
