Cost/benefit. It is of course useless. I think Philip Bolger http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phil_Bolger wrote something interesting about that in one of his books. Of course I don't remember anything about it except that it had to do something about building a 12 ft long full-rigger. /m I like that. Cost/benefit. It is of course useless.

Cost/benefit is not a fuzzy concept when it comes to boats, it's absolutely useless in any way. Cheers Amos, I never said that that Matti learned to communicate- he was however trained to.

So that is my problem, I never learned boat building or communicating. And cost/benefit analysis seems like a pretty fuzzy concept when it comes to boats. “Dear Amos, you have to bear in mind that Matti was trained to write stuff and communicate he was never trained to build boats.”

Don't ever attempt it, there's no going back. That’s a special boat building skill that falls under- cost/benefit analysis. Don’t ever attempt it, there’s no going back.

Wasn't it you that taught me the most valuable of boat building skills? To know when poking a knife in the keel plank will only make you miserable; and that you are better off sailing instead. /m You are so modest Ricard.

Which shines through at times. ;) Matti; Seriously the blogging you've put in and the work that you, Teddy and Merike has done is fabulous. I'm just happy to come and sail with you when all this hard work stuff is over.
