    I'm taking care of my 84 yr. old Mom, awaiting the start of my Narai MK IV . Doing research in the time before!!!! Thought it was interesting you are building a greater beam, I was thinking 24',.... I'm following your blog, wish you were closer, best to you two... David

    Thanks for your best wishes, David, and good luck to you with your Narai Mk IV! You likely know from our blog that we have Mom responsibilities too -- Robbie's is 90 and mine 88 and they both live with us. 

    We're building as per the design -- our max is 21'. We're building to plans, but using the Design Improvement Packages. That does give us a slightly wider beam. "No naval architecture" is one of our mottoes!

    Where are you? As you know, we're in the gulf islands.

    All the best,

    Mary

    I'm in the Atlanta area ... Mom just fell and is doing poorly ... she is still in the hospital ... she'll be 86 in October ... I can't start mine till she is gone ... her care takes much time but it will be my full time project then ... thank you so much for your blog ... I'm living through you right now ... stay in touch ... David
