Ah, as I thought, this particular section of the forum, though full of helpful people, is for steam related threads- perhaps the 'working boats' section would be more appropriate, and more inportantly lead to a more comprehensive advice group.

Send Martin a PM and I'm sure he will move the thread for you mate.

Cliff, I've built a Danny Boy. Feel free to post a reply or PM me if you need any help or advice.
Good luck - it's a lovely, fairly straightforward build - Jim
