Hi Dave, as a Welshman I have to say that is a grand looking Coracle though have to question your choice of an oar!! :doho:
BTW, your dog appears to be looking somewhat apprehensive as if to be thinking.....'I'm not coming with you in that!!
Regards
Nigel.

What is the draft on this little vessel? She looks like she could be sailed in a puddle.

The dog in the photo looks mystified!
Our dogs thought that their humans were very odd. Mrs Hobby put a face pack on one day many years ago and our dog who was devoted to her had never seen a face pack before let out a yelp and ran downstairs!! He also considered hair washing, male or female, a somewhat odd but not frightening human activity!!
