My wife and I had our first child this past October. Of course, I had to build my son a boat. This is his all cypress Lafitte Skiff rocker. He seems to enjoy it, I enjoyed building it, getting to use some old tools I don't get to use so much anymore building aluminum boats, and hopefully it will be around for him to be able to use for his son.

Thanks for the kind words! It was one of those labor of love projects. I had less hours in the last real aluminum
boat i built then I had in building this rocker, but it was well worth it.

I've seen this build firsthand, and it made me feel bad that I didn't do something of similar scale for my kids. Justin is a great guy, who married a great girl, and had a great son. I'm jealous of his skill set that allowed him to build, not just an awesome crib, but an heirloom and a legacy that will be seen, used, and cherished by future generations of his family. There's a lot wrong with the world today, but this is one of those things that is right.
Long story short, I second the compliments.
