I am in the later stages of building a CC23 Cyclone. I am very impressed by the method and how well the various components fit together once they have been constructed to plan. I now have a very good mold which needs a new home. I am willing to deliver free within
200 mi of Bangor, ME. I can be contacted at

Great interview, thanks! I spent an enjoyable morning with John 20+ years ago when he was in Port Orchard and left with a set of CC23 plans. My own CC23 has given me 15+ years of enjoyable sailing on both the West and East coasts. The Constant Camber method is everything that John says it is and my boat has held up very well with minimal maintenance.
