I like how it can't capsize because the mast will tear out first.

Wow, interesting..

That's great, makes me want to build one. You should do it Tyler, just don't use the "white-lead" they mention to seal the edges, lead poisoning might take some of the fun out of the build.

don't worry tyler, later in the book it has instructions for building a river raft and says all you need is an axe, an auger, a hatchet, and some "stout boys" to weild them! also, if you attempt the catamaran, don't use the white lead...far to poisonous...use asbestos instead!

the book is a hoot! boy kids these days with there "vidya" games and jazz music...the first chapters deal with shotgun use. just ask your local gun dealer where the "childrens gun section " is and you will be ready to kill cranes, herons, black panthers, and a host of other endangered species that the boys hunted on there gulf coast sailing adventure(page 95)!
