New Kit Arriving Tomorrow

Postby Shudoman on Thu Oct 07, 2010 3:59 pm

Hi All,

Just got verification from UPS Freight that my PocketShip kit will be delivered tomorrow. I plan to do in in depth blog during the building process, starting with the unboxing process tomorrow. My question to the board is "What phases of the building process would you like me to document the most?"

Hopefully I can compile a list and hit the areas in depth. I've built 2 small S&G sail boats before and assisted on the building of a 21' S&G power boat, so I have a little experience in this area.

Feel free to suggest how you would like this blog to go. I haven't even figured out where to host it. Any and all suggestions will be taken seriously.

thanks,

Bill

Right now I don't have any specific suggestions as to what you what to emphasize on your blog except to mention that based on personal experience on my blog I received the most comments when I was honest about problems and setbacks I encountered and what solutions I came up with.
Good luck on your build, looking forward to following another Pocketship's construction.
