New Planked Foredeck of Pescadero Carolina Dory - Australia
A builder of this nice Pescadero Carolina Dory from Australia just sent me this nice email and photos.
Hi Jeff,
Trust you are well over there. All fine here with Hilary and myself.
Here is a pic of the foredeck of my Pescadero. It looks similar to what John Rocco Macar has done with his Caladesi. Now the weather has cooled off here I am getting on with finishing the Pesadero and moving along with the Chesapeke V bottom dory. The cleat in the pic is just sitting there for effect. Not even sure where I will put it yet. I may even run the anchor chain through a hole near the fairlead to save scuffing up the nice foredeck.
Kind regards,

P.S. A nice grey kangaroo pic attached as well. Gotta keep up the Aussie image eh!!
Great looking deck. I can't wait to see the completed boat on the water.

Boatbuilding Pictures
Please don't be embarrassed to send in photos of your projects. I get a lot of emails from people who tell me about their build but never send any pictures. I'd love to see them, as would all of the other people who are either building a boat or thinking about it. They need all the encouragement they can get.
I believe in offering you all the information you need to learn more about how to build a boat. That's why I offer free videos, free ebooks, and free reports. There's even some free plans available to isiders and some seminars I've delivered. To join, just click below:
