10-13-04: Zip construction begins outside, no room in shop.



10 August 2005

I recently completed my Zip, after 7 months of spare time work and I could not be happier. I have wanted to build a boat from scratch for a long time and enjoyed this one so much I will soon start on another. I have sold the Zip. Next will be the Malahini. Thanks for your support and great products.
