This is how Russell’s work has been described. He has spent his life creating uncommon boats from cruising proas to nesting kayaks & dinghies and fuel efficient motor boats. His skill as a boat builder and epoxy specialist is highly respected and sought after by those who know him and his work. His boats have been either for personal use or for his closest friends, keeping a low profile in the boat design world. He has, however, often taught people to work safely and effectively with epoxy. Nesting boats have always been a personal passion and because of the serious interest in his dinghies expressed by many who have sen them over the years, the idea to start a kit business seemed like a good one. Russell is a stickler for detail and functionality and has put together a very high quality product with each kit and extensive instructional builder’s manuals.
