Finished 22 Ft Skiff






Well Here she is as promised. The final stage of or New 22 ft Lady Bug Skiff. At the begining of this project I noted that i was looking for a name I have narrowed it down to 2 The "Long Beach 22" or the "Chesapeake 22' thanks to Alberto. I like both and have to do some research. However I am sure this will not be the end of my Bloging I will continue to blog in the future. I hope this helps you decide if this project is for you i think it is a great project for anyone. And with my help you will be able to build one just like this. Please visit http://www.ladybugboats.com/ for plans thanks again and i will let you know when i start the next blog
