Home grown...


More then just a pipeDream....
The i550 is a 18 foot sport sail boat. It is based on the sharpie boats of long ago and is built from 1/4 inch plywood covered in epoxy resin and fiberglass. The sail plan is in the "over canvased" category and should make for some fun sailing. The boat also features a bow sprit and flies a masthead spinnaker down wind. This is my first personally owned sailboat, which I am building in my garage. Check out Kevin's progress on his blog @
