And for something entirely different.


I entered a Design Competition with the Theme: a Houseboat. Sponsored by Offcenterharbor, a media attention getter  with videos and tit bits about boat stuff. I did not win and that is ok. Being published  was important and good. A few of the entrants had been built, most of the competitors presented personal visions. I had a live customer for this project and that is a very different thing. I guess I could resume by copying what someone wrote to me. " Your entry is the most complete set of plans in the whole bunch, and the easiest to build". Gratifying my goal.





Here is the actual entry I wrote.
