    Not only is craftsmanship tip top, but the lay out of the living space and functionality is amazing and pleasing to the eye. Also, his point about the advantage of owning a gas powered motor over a diesel motor is spot on. As on owner of two diesel powered rigs I have discovered that you pay a premium in initial cost, repair costs and routine maintenance costs. I wont own another diesel. I would love to cross paths with Ken out on the road someday. He seems like a very genuine human being.

    But everything in it just seems to fit together perfectly, and nothing seems too big or too small. The attention to detail is superb.
    As claustrophobic as I tend to get now, I'll bet even I could last a good time in it.

    Beautiful, and so well planned and executed! Truly does remind me of wooden sailboats I've been on.
