Wow.. I am floored. I recieved a call a few days ago, from a gentleman by the name of Phill Brander. He gives me a ring on his dime, from Australia (I'm in FL-US) to talk to me about how to build a boat, because I expressed interest. I wanted to publicly say thanks for the advice and tips you gave me, as they will come in handy (no doubt about it) in the weeks and months to come. It's great to realize that there are people out there like Phill. Not sure if he realized what he was getting into (offering his continued help if I needed it)

Thanks Phill!

PS: I started construction of my carbon rudder system a few days ago. I saw how you shaped the foam with a template, but I think I have an idea that could be usefull. How about a CNC foam cutter that cuts to .001" accuracy?

All I need now for my boards and rudders is a good foil plot and some dimensions....
