I know, it's been a long time since the last
news. I'll come right to the point: I have been
building a house in the desert and have not been able to go
sailing or to attend events.
The house is in a remote place and requires a lot of
effort just to get supplies to the site - there is no
access road, so I carry everything a mile on my back. The good
news is that I will soon have my first house on land that I
own. More good news: This house project is providing the
material for my next seven DVDs. It is more than a
house and a home, it is a survival retreat.
If survival interests you, see my web
site, still evolving, at:

The biggest news is the one at the bottom of the
Home page and on the RebelCat
Events page (here) - the
amazing success of a DVD buyer and RebelCat 5 builder Zoltan
Keleman in Hungary. He challenged a team of students to study
the RebelCat 5 DVD and then build three, four or five RebelCats
in one day (the more they made, the higher their grade) - a
project management training exercise. The extraordinary success
of this exercise suggests three things to me:
1. The leadership provided by Zoltan Keleman was
exceptional
2. The team that built the five catamarans was highly motivated
and capable
3. The DVD is complete and can be followed by untrained people
to build real boats that work.
