Steve,

Who made your bimini top? It looks like it is open while you are sailing?

I was trying to save bytes - I wasn't sure whether the forum's capacity is as big as Don L's hard drive <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

P.S. I have an even bigger version...

This is hoist day (hope this works) when I last pulled Classical Cat out of the salty brine two years ago. She's been in fresh water for awhile but is again on the trailer for the winter. Plans are to launch again soon in fresh water close by.
Plus....I learned how to put the small picture in my post <img src=icon_smile_cool.gif border=0 align=middle>

Got to get "The Cat" back in the water soon or I will go crazy.
I even bought a new 110 before Christmas and just bought a motor lifting dammit (davit) today from Garhauer (we live 1 hour away from them) so I should use this stuff....

Thanks, Don.....and what the hell are you doing up this late?
I was up wrestling with putting pics in posts and now see how it's done...and I noted you made my pics bigger, too<img src=icon_smile_cool.gif border=0 align=middle>
Lake Erie? That place must be frozen right now. All we've had is a week of lots (I mean lots!!!) of rain. But we needed it since we've been in an extreme drought recently.
It now is 11:05pm (in the night) and past my bedtime. Bye

I'm up this late because I'm at work. Hope to be out of here soon.

Yes, my sailing grounds are a little firm right now, but the countdown til splash has commenced.

Good job on the pic's. It's nice to see everyone's pride and joy!

What type of work keeps a soal up this late?

I work in the Information Technology department of the Detroit Newspaper Agency which is the operating agent for both The Detroit News and Detroit Free Press, Michigan's largest newspapers. The last edition of the paper goes to press around this time, and once the presses are rolling, my job is done.

Let 'em roll because off I go....to bed.
See ya.
BTW, just in case...
Sven and Olie got their gear together and went fishing one winter's day. They went out on the ice and Sven dug the first hole. They were getting their lines ready when this big booming voice spoke, "Go somewhere else. There are no fish under the ice!" So they moved to another spot and Olie dug the next hole. As they were getting their lines ready to drop in, there came the sound of a big booming voice, "Go somewhere else. There are no fish under the ice!" Well, this was starting to get under Sven's skin. They moved to another spot, dug a third hole, and got their lines out. As they were just about ready to drop them in, this big booming voice said, "Go somewhere else. There are no fish under the ice!" By this time, Sven had had all he could take. He turned around, cupped his hands, and in his loudest voice bellowed, "Who are you that says there are no fish under the ice?" For a moment, silence, then the big, booming voice came back and said, "I am the rink master!"

....so I'm looking at this hoist thingy and I could put it in several different places...except I can't make up my mind. Will post some pictures when and if I install it today.
It's good to know how to post these pics finally after seeing so many people get it figured out.
So I can just take pics from other sites and copy/paste the url address into the brackets? Seems pretty simple....NOW <img src=icon_smile_blush.gif border=0 align=middle>
