Van Spalding - Bob's Special
Good afternoon Joan, Here is a shot of the completed 'Bob's Special' launched 14 November last year. I followed 'Canoe Craft' to the letter and it paid off. Took me 29 weeks of off on weekend work. I have not seen a comparable boat in the area. We get a lot of stares and complimnents. Thanks Van
