I am in the later part of the planning to build a steel hulled trawler. I have decided to go with the DD 41. Some of the research I have done to this point indicates there may be a couple items that owners of Diesel Ducks generally agree could be improved. I'm interested in getting the thoughts and experiences of people who have built to George Buehler's plans about what worked well and what they would change if they could do it over. I am doing research on the Diesel Duck and have seen your name associated with a number of Duck related questions. I would like to speak to some folks who have built or had built a Duck from George's plans. While I certainly think Bill Kimley at Seahorse does a magnificent job, I'm more interested in the individuals who have worked directly with yards following George's original plans. If you know anyone out there who you could pass my email address to, I would certainly appreciate it. <mailto:dcroy@piainc.net>dcroy@piainc.net David Croy Richmond, VA
