Crazy talent right here!

Forget about all the reasons why something may not work. You only need to find one good reason why it will.

Great work Steve, I think 2 1/2 months is impressive - I'd still be fiddling with the jig to start on.

It can't be too difficult - a lot of people do it.

You know when there's a lull in post's from Steve he's up to something! That is a nice micro skiff, looks pretty bullet proof too. Thanks for taking the time to post it
Do what you can with that you have where you are

You guys kill me!  "Well I had a couple hours so...I built a boat."  or, "Well things slowed down a little so I built a reel from scratch with raw materials" amazing craftsmen on here!

Great job, Steve.  All I can say the wonders on this site never cease.

My man Steve who I admire very much come through again.  You are one talented person.  Dominick
Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.

Sorry for being late to your post Steve,  you are very talented and a lucky guy to have this much fun and creativity.  Thanks for posting pictures and the rooster and peacock give us the impression that you're in paradise.   Keep your dreams,  and thanks again 🎣🚣‍♀️

Very nice, with a 2.5 hp, I am guessing you will do around 5 mph?

5 mph would be the estimated hull speed at 14 feet but it feels more like 7-8 mph.  Will find out for sure when I go to visit the harbor master.  The boat weighs about 200 lbs, plus 35-40 lbs for the motor, plus the weight of the person and gear.
