I thought you guys might have felt the same way as we do about OUR Southern Cross. :lol:

That could well be a great name for another boat. :D

Educ,

Very stable platform! I'm impressed.

Questions and comments. I'm hoping you'll get rid of that hand sander for sheet rock and get yourself a real, random orbital sander. Best present you can get yourself.

May I ask if, with a bit of hindsight in your pocket now, would you extend those crossways 2 X 4's on out to the far edge of each pontoon for greater strength of joint? And maybe an extended deck?

Hi everyone,

Once again from Mar del Plata, Argentina, I’d like to show you albums #7 and 8 with the latest photos taken of my pontoon boat (designed by Matt), navigating along the “albufera” (meaning small sea, coastal marsh or wetlands) of Mar Chiquita... and a device on wheels I made for an easier transition into the water.
:D

humm...
maybe strech her out a little longer, throw on a cuddy cabin, a mast? I wonder if you'd have a little day cruiser catamaran?

brgds, Ron

Ron, thanks for your message! :)
A few people have told me that a mast and sail would make it look like a Hobie Cat... I’m thinking of putting a windstopper :idea: on her or using some sort of waterproof cover so I can sleep on/in it, although I will have to consider the weight issue.
