Inspiring story. He's an innovator... i'd never even thought about using a chainsaw for boat modifying! Out with the angle grinder... in with the CHAIN SAW!

It's been done in something much smaller. Remember Tom Mclean the SAS officer. He did it in a 7 foot boat. Check it out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_McLean Well done Tom. At least he gave up before trying anything as stupid as Sea Biscuit |

It's been done by a couple of beach cats (Hobie 18 and more recently a Formula 20) wouldn't like to contemplate doing it on anything smaller or slower.
