Nice... I love the atomization of the water in the slow mow as the main hits the drink!

Howdens in NZ are doing Farr 3.7 kits. They are getting back to me with the kit cost. I will post on the blog when I have more information.

I have also written to Fyne Boat Kits to see if they would be interested in creating a Farr 3.7 kit. Anyone interested in a kit please contact them. Some potential customers may help things along. LINK

I haven't but I will, thanks for the tip.

I'm investigating the kit route as people have contacted me saying they like the idea of building but would prefer a 'one stop shop'. That takes the pain out of some of the jobs. This is the advantage of someone like Fyne. They also offer a build a boat holiday, which is a nice idea. Go up to there work shop for a week and build under super vision. For about £275 for the week all tools included. Which seems like a great holiday to me!

That does sound good.  I'm not sure my wife would see it that way, but one of the things that puts me off building my own boat is not having someone to assist when I get stuck!  Also time, space, abilty, interest, money etc.....  Seriously though, I think to offer something like that is a great idea.

As of this afternoon it is just possible the Farr 3.7 may be at the RYA Dinghy show. Can't say anymore as nothing is agreed.
