I seldom see much here with the Waterlust expedition canoe as the subject, so I thought it'd be a good time to put something up _ **here** _ to the benefit of interested individuals.

Several kits have been completed and launched both here in the US as well as in some Eurpoean countries.

A Very Active thread is in progress (as of today it's up to 31 pages!) over on [**a forum hosted by the good folks over at Fyne Boats**](https://forum.fyneboatkits.co.uk/viewtopic.php?id=652) in the UK. (They make an easier task of posting images so if you're interested in **_seeing_** what's being done with this particular CLC design I trust you'll be well rewarded pointing your browser-of-choice to that forum's thread!)

And as for my project? After some 18 months a'building I'm almost - _ **al** most_ - ready to lauch! Just not quite there yet....

Couple of recent high points:

CLC's addition of an [**ama/aka kit**](https://www.clcboats.com/shop/boats/canoes/waterlust-sailing-canoe.html) to improve stability when under sail;

One builder using the mizzen alone, with its mast mounted in the rear-most mainmast pocket, effectively to 'de-power' the sailing rig when conditions suggest it would be less adventurous than otherwise! [**Here's a nice video**](https://youtu.be/1XI1PAq_PT8) he's posted to show just how well this actually works!

More to come....
