Happy to be around
« on: February 19, 2015, 10:29:19 am »
I'm gonna be around for a while yet, to ask "un-informed"  ( read DUMB) questions.)   :icon_biggrin: Just had all the checks done for the bout with cancer that I had in late 2013, like vocal chord surgery & radiation, along with chest xrays etc.
 I'm clean ! :icon_biggrin:
I'll never figure this out......

I'm really glad to hear that Bill. The older I get the more I welcome good news.

Now get back on those winter and summer projects!

Thanks !  Here's my old wood cabin cruiser.  Did a lot of work on in the recent few years, like replacing about 12 feet of the left side bottom planks, all new exhaust manifolds & risers etc. It's ready to drag over to the marina !



It's a 1963 26 ft Owens Contessa that I replaced the ragtop with a mahogany hard top...etc
