Thanks Jon, After attending the WBS and taking the Elements of Sailing. My desire to build a boat was solidified by sailing in The 12 1/2’s. By Wednesday of that week I when up to the WBS and purchased the Haven 12 1/2 plans. This past June, 5 years later, I launched my Haven 12 1/2, Skylark, during the WB show. A massive thanks to the Wooden Boat magazine, School, and Show without your support I wouldn’t have known what a pleasure it is to sail a 12 1/2! Bob Emser P.s. Skylark won best of Show for owner built sailboat.
You need to vote for the most amazing woman in in the WH if you want a response. Wooden Boat Magazine is so angry about Hillary Clinton not becoming the annointed one in 2016 that the publication ( via Scott, the forums formerSupreme leader ) . Banned anyone that had political differences from Jon's. Not a single person from his forums posted here. Because it's a political platform. Congrats Jon!
You are one of the all time best, Jon, for all you have done. You Inspired me to own two other great woodies: a Giles Vertue, and an Oughtred Grey Seal. The latter is pictured in Wooden Boat Mag. of May/June 2009, page 93.) All the best.

Thank you for posting. Hopefully I get to sail one of these boat designs someday.
