Title: Working on New Design 2012 version
Post by: wizard612 on July 23, 2012, 04:25:51 PM: Thought I would post up some views of my latest 3D model of my dream circle boat. Named it Man-O-War after the triple crown winner of the late 30's.
Comments are appreciated. By the way after 3 years trying I got my first job offer... Looks like I'll be a High School Teacher - Pre-engineering, digital graphic, and Solid Works CAD.

Maybe a "spec" class with an EFI small block as a stepping stone to the big inch class.

However that makes my fantasy boat a class of one. would you guys let me come play with you for a while until it's sorted out and other lotto winners buy them up?
