AlloyToy, that work boat looks good. When I looked at the wake, at first I thought;

"That guy is one good skiff driver! He pulled up to that dock at quite a clip and landed perfectly!"

Then I noticed the lines and realized it was a tow and went looking for more coffee. :doh:

Couldn't find a site for this builder? Maybe the name wasn't clear to me?

Cheers,

Kevin,

He just started building boats.

Here is his link: https://www.facebook.com/pages/White-Me ... 2433868979

Did a lot of welding on my buddies boat that he built. He built this boat for a guy over in Narragansett Bay

Looks like it serves it purpose quite well

Great looking boats. The 14.5 skiff looks pretty stout. Starting to see more alloy in the NE these days. I was down on the Cape last weekend and stopped by a local welding shop to check out a flat bottom skiff being built. It's really got my gears turning.
