Greg is attempting to pedal his human powered boat 'Within' 3000 miles across the Atlantic ocean
in less than 43 days setting a new human powered crossing record.

In the meantime, Greg is building a new boat to challenge kayaker Carter Johnson's
24 hour human powered boat distance record of 245 km for late June, 2008.





Styrofoam skeleton and film preview


The video clip above is a short 5 minute segment I put together using the footage we shot from the last couple of days. I wanted to preview how the light was in the shop and other areas of the house as well as how the Sony HDR-FX1 HD camera handled various conditions like hand-held steadiness, close-up focus, 1080i high-def image quality, etc.

It worked out kind of neat, so I uploaded it to YouTube.com for you to check out.


Todays progress:

I finished the Styrofoam skeleton today - it went pretty fast actually. The sections are hot glued onto the main profile. Next I will lay over narrow, 2" wide, 1/2" thick Styrofoam strips, then sand it smooth.
