Those of you who follow the writings and work of some of Wooden Boat magazine's most respected contributors might enjoy this site.It offers alot of educational content with video and text covering all aspects of boats and seamanship. I am told that future
content will include fiberglass. If you're a fan of Ben Mendlowitz, Maynard Bray, Bill Mayher et al check it out. There is a subscription for viewing all of it. I have no affliation with the site other than being a member myself. WWW.offcenterharbor.com
Great new website

shameless self-promotion
I don't really have any affiliation with the site either, except that my son stars in one of the "Getting Kids Started in Boats". We took a kayak class at Wooden Boat School when Maynard Bray and Steve made one of the videos for this. The free preview is here http://www.offcenterharbor.com/video/?i ... 5nLTEubXA0
And ditto what Greg said, the content is excellent. I got to see early versions of some of the video. Lots of traditional boats, big and small.

Kayak and CD30
Jeff, Do you intend to tow or put your kayak on deck of your CD30? Looks like a fun way to explore from an anchorage if you could manage to bring one or two with you.

Got me thinking
Jeff, Thanks for getting me thinking about kayaks and cruising. I like the idea of putting it in your hard dingy. That might guide my choice of which to build. Like your 33', my sidedecks are tight. I'm considering the same one your son worked on or the Fox that is mentioned in the site.
I'll repeat my standing offer to CDer's in case you haven't read it. If you're in Brooklin and need anything don't hesitate to get in touch. I'm in Center Harbor and usually know of an empty mooring.
