Looking good guys, did you order the pre cut kit for this boat? Do yo think it saved you a bunch of time? I dont think I could afford to get the kit for one of these big boats I would probably get enough wood at a time to do the hull and then buy more for the rest. keep up the great work guys you inspire me. cant wait till I build my next boat. It will either be this one or the HB-20, possibly stretched to a 22 (feet). You can strech by 10 percent.

Yessir, we did order the precut kit, and theres no doubt in my mind that its saved us a boatload of time. (I hope youll forgive the irresistable pun.) It saved us the hassle of measuring the dimensions of each piece -- and remeasuring, because were picky. It saved us the time of cutting each piece by hand, because they pre-routed everything, leaving us just small tabs to cut, and the kit may have even saved Greg some money, because he likely would have wasted more wood than the makers of the kit did. Okay, it didnt save any money, but it definitely saved us a lot of time. The big benefit of buying the kit is saving time. The biggest benefit of cutting the pieces yourself, as you alluded to, is that you can spread the cost out over a longer period of time by buying stuff as you need it.
