"The first picture is my wife, Li Min, and myself. The second picture is Li Min and her niece, Li Yu Shi. The third picture is Li Min's Father, Li Chun He. We went to this little pond in the country side for an outing. One boat represents the USA, the other the PRC. We also sail in our very large swimming pool here in Chengdu, Sichuan PRC.
We do enjoy sailing them and always draw a crowd of curious onlookers.

Thanks -- Jerry King, Boeing Field Service Representative - Chengdu"

Seattle, Washington: This was a different use for our boats! Airtouch Communications used a whole fleet of 50 Tippecanoe boats at an employee convention to practice team building skills. Each team started with a kit and built the boat and decorated it. Here the finished boats are displayed on the stage.

Sarah and Marina got their two boats, 1 and 2, at the same time. Sarah's Mom sent the pictures:

Victoria, B.C.: "Sarah - first launch of Tippecanoe #1. Mayor's Pond, Victoria."

Spring in Lund, WA: "Marina and her Dad. First launch of Tippecanoe #2 at Lund. Kevin, her Dad, works for the Coast Guard."

Everett, Washington: "Will and Cynthia, Thanks for just making the boats in the first place! I thought I'd send along some photos of my T-32 (#42) and my T-Class. I enjoy them greatly! Take Care Jim Arrabito"

I had to look twice to recognize the T-Class- these are pictures of the 18 inch T-Class Racing Sloop finished from the standard kit with an abundance of artistic creativity and fun.

Jim also built the 32 inch T32 shown below - again with his own delightful additions to the standard kit!

James Arrabito is a professional photographer in Everett, Washington.

Buchanan, New York: Bill Durr used the mahogany veneer deck kit on this beautiful T37 and added a cabin of his own design. He named her Hilda I.

Redmond, Washington: Rob DeLettera built this beautiful T37. He writes: "Hi Will, Great Kit. I had a good time building it. Here are some pictures of my process and then first and second day sailing. I look forward to racing against my Victoria. I know the T37 will win. Thanks again, Rob"
