| Tubby Tug a design by |
| Built by Kevin Brown |
| What's going on here? In the winter of 2006 I decided to build a wooden boat. I had a bunch of free wood so it seemed like the thing to do. I won't get into that build but if you want to read about it, the website is www.lilwoody.com. What I found was that I really enjoyed the build process. Add to that, my daughter loves the water and spent many adventure filled days this summer with me jumping from island to island and visiting various marinas. When building Lil Woody, I casually mentioned that I would build Abby a boat one day. That statement was quickly followed by "when do I get a boat, Daddy"? Every time we went to the lake she asked the question again - just as any 3 year old would do. That is what has brought me to the Tubby Tug by Glen-L Designs - or as it will be named "Abby's Lil Tug". The idea was to build it over the early winter and have it ready for her 4th birthday party in January of 2008. With a late night push two days before her birthday - I finished it. I water tested it the day before her birthday and delivered it to the little bright-eyed angel at her party surrounded by all her friends. I think I was equally as excited as she was. Just what every 4-year-old needs! I documented this build for those who might be interested and my own personal reflection. You are visitor number: |
