    Awesome build!! I wonder what that 30,000 cost would be now with the prices of todays lumber(crazy right?). SOunds like its 15 years later. I just know a 2 x 4 costs 7 bucks right now.

    It is not a "functional" boat, more like a test hull. The article on the 3d printed boat: https://maineboats.com/blog/2019/uma...d-printed-boat

    I had a sample part of carbon fiber reinforced nylon that was pretty awesome... but I think nylon absorbs water.
