Steve, that looks so neat. I wish I had your talents. Oh, and if I didn't mention it, what a great score board that you made for us to be used at our events, like the one we just had down at Rend where we finished ahead of Christine again. Yea, I know, I'm getting a lot of milage out of thatbut you knowshe's noteven returning fire, NO FUN.
Thanks alot Rob and Slim. That's the least I can do for the club, and I'm glad you guys like it and appreciate it.

And if I were you I'd run that win into the ground. I'm sure she would...lol!
And Jason's right; he knows Christine well enough. You know it's comin'.

Okay, I got 'er done! At least as far as the repairs and getting it sea-worthy.

I PRESENT TO YOU MY LITTLE WOODY!!



Spot for the bow-light;



Spot for stern-light;



finished corners;



All those plugs hide 1 5/8" deck-screws. There shouldn't be any rusting screws to break off down the road. I made it as maintenance-free as I could.



The finish is good ole spar-varnish with a U.V. inhibitor, so the sun won't beat up the wood too fast.



It's all sea-worth. Now I have to run the lights and makeit legal. I still need a couple tubes of J-B Weld or plumber's putty to fill some cracks here and there, but once it's done I'm gonna give it a $35.00 paint-job and decorate with some nice decals, first of which will be a club-insignia. I found a web-site that'll make pretty much anything you want. And they're not that expensive at all. If you guys like it, I'll order a bunch for us and we can plaster them all over our boats.

I HAVE A BOAT!!!
