I started this project some years ago & finally got her built in 2013, she was finished & launched May 2014. It would have been nice to build more but the loss of the workshop meant it was not to be.
The boat was designed by myself using Delftship pro software she is 8.5m x 1.5m & used a 10mm PET 100 core with  light csm & Biaxial cloth layup. Vinylester resin used throughout. Her finished weight all up with oars & gear is under 200kgs.
She has proven to be extremely fast which as designer & builder is rather satiusfying!
A detailed sequence of building is on my blog at ,http://eastcoastrowing.blogspot.co.uk/, It now looks like i may have found another workshop so fingers crossed!

I only saw this now, it looks great - well done. I can't imagine how many hours you must have in there.
