NE Dory Maiden Voyage!!

My Dory hit water today!! She floated nice and stable, Rowed with ease, glided in a straight line and seemed like it would never stop.

On the down side...I found my construction has a problem. I did not get a good seal around the centerboard trunk. I have a rather large leak...Well at least I know were the problem is. I plan on giving her several days to dry out. Then a good sanding and a strong layer of thickened epoxy. Should be good to go!

   Mike she looks great.  Good work.  I had started my Dory about a year ago, worked on it pretty regularly then due to some travel and other interruptions I didn't work on it for some time.  Then after reading your first few posts, you got me motivated again.  

Good luck to you...thanks
