Rouven Bavaria - English 20

Hy Ted, your books - even translated in german - is amazing. I first built an English 20 with wood of our region. Then, after being absolutly pleased with the result and the handling i decided to create a Solo English 20. My building area took place in a cellar which had only a small window to get outside. Therefore i reduced the boats width about 10% and added 10 cm to its length. Due to the indian decorations in the bottom its only for deep waters, but on the other side it cuts water like a tomahawk. Rouven, Bavaria
