Hi there,

I saw that you recently completed a long awaited Pea Pod, congrats! Can you forward me the plans? I have a partially finished one that was started over 30 years ago!

Thanks in advance,

From one olguy to another,

Hello to you and congratulations on a beautiful boat. I too am resurrecting an old hobby for the sake of my grandchildren. I am now building my 5th Pea Pod from some 30 + year old plans and sketches. I have made a couple of changes and would like to know what the rest of the pea pod world is doing. My biggest challenge right now is converting my old plans to accept a newer technology sail trim system. Can you help or give me some directions?

Hey olguy; I have one I built in , well a long longtime ago. A friend and I builta pairusing door skin material and finished themwith polyester resin so the mahogany shines through. The ballast consisted of shot and epoxy and was ecased in a Legs Egg ( container that pantyhose came in and was shaped like an egg.( my wife wore the panthose, just thought I should clear that up)It was a hoot to sail, I didn;t realize that it fit in any class.. I have found a sailing club nearby and it's on the list for refurbishing. What material did you use for sails?

Cheers,
Old Sailor
