If you don’t mind me asking what did it cost and about how many hours to build the Compass Rose? Maybe my daughter that likes to build things would like to make one next year.

At least with a project like this we would not have the house, yard or something else all torn up for the summer:-)

Costwise, I have not added the receipts up.

Time wise, I don't know hours really. It's been many evenings and weekends for about 5 months to get it "campable". I still need to finish it. Literally even, since the spar varnish still must go on. The fenders are another thing to do.

If you'll notice the ugly utility trailer fenders went camping. I have these to mount, once I figure how:
