Memorial Boat

Donation protected

Hello; my name is Mike.

I spent most of my childhood being raised by my Grandfather and Grandmother; my parents worked long haul trucking to support us and were not often home.

I called my Grandfather  "Dandan".

Dandan taught me many things as I grew up: How to do carpentry, how to sail, how to think for myself, and how to dream.

Last year,  on October 30th, Dandan passed away from a sickness he had been fighting for a long time. In the year since, we have worked hard to deal with the loss of our great teacher.

This past year, I have been working on a dream. I want to take the skills my Dandan gave me, and build something in his memory.

I have looked at plans, I have spoken to people who are knowledgeable in this goal, and I have gone over those things to find what I hope you will agree was the ideal unification of those skills, and dreams.

I want to build a boat.

The plans I have picked are from the very reputable group at Glen-L Designs:

I have calculated the expenses and I hope, with your help, to reach the goal of $15,000 to build this boat over the next year.

I thank you for taking the time to read my idea, and I thank you for any help that you can offer to give me the power to memorialize my Dandan with this boat.
