Project Cheers

Recently Russel and Ashlyn Brown of Port Townsend Watercraft (ptwatercraft.com) have republished the book "Project Cheers". First published in 1969 it tells the story of the proa Cheers, designed for and entered in the 1968 OSTAR. It really is a great read and gives great insight into how the boat was conceived, built, how she sailed, problems encountered and solutions engineered. Thank you to Russel, Ashlyn and everyone else involved in getting the book back in circulation, and thanks for the speedy delivery as well!

You can get the book from ptwatercraft.com and on Amazon and you can find more info on the book and boat at cheersdicknewick.com.
