Hello Dennis,
  welcome to the electronic europa group. Theres plenty of info here, and you
may want to have a look through your 'welcome' note when you signed onto
europa@avnet.co.uk to read some of the previous emails.

>I am planning to start building in spring 97, spending the winter building
>a workshop.
   
having started without one, but now having one on long term loan, I would
recommend you buy a decent size air compressor first if you dont yet have
one, plus tools eg drill, right angle grinder etc NOW. especially if you plan
to paint it yourself. Insulate the place as well as possible, it will save
money in the long term, and help the resin curing.

>Can anyone advise me if a workshop 22' by 7'6" is sufficient size? I have
>access to separate premises for storage of completed assemblies.

  this is just about my setup, plus the back garden is big enough to rig it,
when the weathers nice too. If you can store seperately it does help, but you
can certainly build a europa in your proposed workshop

>With regard to handheld GPS can anyone advise me if they use a standard
>data exchange protocol with peripheral equipment?
  cant help you with this one, but someone will be along soon with the
answer, and he may very well be called 'Graham'

happy vorbereitet,
chus, dave
