TOPIC: Some Great People hang out here.

Some Great People hang out here. 13 years 2 months ago #39260

Here is an e-mail I just received.
hi bob,i tried to buy the custom craft for you,todd,dave, neil ,ron and i tried to get enough to buy it for you,and i was going to go get it and suprise you with it,but we came up short ,.
im sorry my friend i tried,john

I deleted her info here. But leave me tell you one thing. This e-mail means more to me than any old boat. When you have people to call friends you are a rich man.

That would have been a surprise but I'm sure it will live again somewhere. Right now is just not a good time. Besides I have a ton of work on my Winner. Wait till you see what I'm up against here. The boat is very solid with a good transom. Someone in the past put about 645 coats of paint on it but not before they ground off most of the gel coat. What they did leave of the gel is cracked the whole way to the mat. The good Lord is going to try my patience with this one. But we must press on, because what we work for we love the most. Believe me this one will be some work. Right now at this moment I'm sitting in the basement in my underwear getting ready to shower all that sanding dust with fiberglass mixed in. Man I'm all itchy.

Thank you all,

Bob, I know what you mean about the 645 coats of paint. This is what I encountered when I stripped the light blue pain to get down to the original red on my Tomahawk.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.“
