The USCG does something called PAE where I have to find the original vessel stamped plan to allow a present build to be certified. So glad I have the original stamped paper plans from 20, even 30 years ago.
While digging, I found some treasures.

Woody Brown senior. In a May 2011 Yachting magazine. Dug it up looking for the old stamped, printed plans.
I am so honored that his son chose me to design his new boat.

Five years ago. Still one of the best sailing videos I’ve ever seen. Simmo Kook did such great editing and sound track. And still one of the best examples that the earth is flat. Simmo from near Genoa, Italy picked a Bakersfield punk-folk garage band as soundtrack.

My customer in Italy made the still coolest sailing video I have ever seen. On my 24' trimaran design.
I will see if I can find it next.
But I realized that the earth is flat when he picked a Bakersfield punk folk garage band.
