    That's a pretty website although the music is a bit annoying, but have they completed any builds since 2005?

    So I guess this brings me from being a "Senior Member" to an "Over The Hill Old Fogey Member" with a big mouth. :D :cool: Thanks to everyone for helping to keep me informed. Hopefully I've helped a few along the way myself.:)

    Congrats NYCAP123! A thousand posts! Wow...that's incredible, and yes you have imparted a wealth of knowledge to this Forum. I certainly have enjoyed the knowledge you've shared with the many Posters here...including me. I would like to aspire to a 1,000 posts, but I'm going to bet even money that I'll get kicked off the Forum prior to reaching anywhere near your number! Does a thousand posts, put you in the same league with Payton Manning? (I'm not being a smart a*s here...seriously congratulations on a lot of time spent and a job well done! Thank You!)

    Hey NEO, the secret to a useful post is to first read the one you are are responding to ... the subject was posted in mid January, 2009.

    Wooden Boats? They are still being built. I was in Dubai recently to look at a Dhow that's under construction. That one is about 100' in length. The other project I looked at is in the 130' range. They still have a way to go before completion.
