This will grace the bow of the craft in white on the red baase color of the boat. Should get the attention of other boaters I think. I've been toying with the idea of putting a larger version of either the whole logo or just the bird on the under-side of the boat, it might get a little scratched up but what the hell, I like it. Feedback?

The Whimbrel
I found it very difficult to come up with a name for my "boat-to-be". After a lot of searching I cam across a Seabird called a Whimbrel from then on I knew that was the name for my canoe. So I toyed around with fonts, colors, designs and I think I have what I want.

A Glimpse Into The Future!
To give you an idea of where I'm headed I thought that I could share with you all a picture from one of the many owners/home builders of the "Six Hour Canoe".

The Change Is Piling Up!
I am happy to say that this is my first Blog posting ever! Due to the Blogs of friends like, Ryan, Des, Jeremy (Jer the shell looks awesome) and others I have decided to track the growth of my many projects so that I may share my expirience with my friends scattered around the world.
Now, back to that part about change. I have been collecting all of my spare change in a jar hoping to accumulate enough to by supplies for "The Whimbrel" A.K.A The Six Hour Canoe. Introduced to me by Tris who is currently building a beautiful 17ft Wooden Skiff. (Which can be found under the name "My Boat" on Facebook. I can't wait to get started, it's going to be a blast to build and a great way to explore the Finger Lakes.
Along with the construction of The Whimbrel I will also be building myself a new fishing rod from the ground up. I hope that everyone will continue to check up on my blog as I begin to make process. I will be adding pictures as I go as well as some good pics of Hobo Dogg.
Thanks Everyone!
