Oooh! That is a pity! I am very sorry that you stop the project; after 
all, you have put more time and energy in all the decks and detail than 
in the hull itself, haven't you? But I fully understand your reluctance 
to start on that again. However, after some time, maybe your brain will 
start to itch again and you will feel compelled to take up the project 
again. Never say never...

I am disappointed for you. At least you still have the experience.
