The turnout for our Sunday afternoon boatbuilding continues to be robust. As a result the “stripping” of our new American Star is almost complete. More gratifying than the beautiful hull that is growing under our hands has been the good cheer and increasing confidence that I see around me every Sunday afternoon. The Wednesday crew is smaller but equally focused and congenial.

We will have regular sessions on Sundays going forward, but there will be no boatbuilding this Wednesday because of the VCB board meeting.
