Winter project pictures
Carved a bunch of motley looking salts into the V berth shelf fiddle during driveway sailing this winter.

After changing the rinky dink butane burner unit to propane I also added a propane detector. Two people we know had severe blow-ups recently. One incident involved a camper and the other a commercial fishing boat which burned to the waterline.

Your extremely talented. Have you ever thought of getting into the Half-hull model business with that talent? There really aren't a lot of guys doing it. If you can find a way to make them inexpesively (both half hull and full boat) you'd be able to unload that stuff for big bucks...
