Just wanted to say that in my opinion Bob Eeg builds a fine boat and is a nice guy. And Alezondo (sp?) does great work and does it fast! My friend Bob Thornton and I picked up my new M17 on Nov 1, 2005 at Bob's shop in Ontario, CA. --pictures at this web address:

I would do business with Bob again with no hesitation. He helped me choose components and provided wiring design information so that I could and did do the major wiring in the boat. He provided some nice extras and was very helpful in may ways.
Hydeaway 2 is pretty much ready to sail now. The woodwork is finished, wiring is all done, the stove, GPS, depth sounder, solar panel, and sail handling hardware are all installed, and I even took it sailing for the first time on the Snake River on 4 Jan 2006. Weather was nearly 50°F. If we weren't going to Tahiti next week I'd be tempted to hitch onto it and head south until I found a warm place to sail some more!
Here's hoping that 2006 is very good to all of you!
