Grady only started using XL ply in 1998. That's why you hear so
much
about
rotting transoms, floors, and bulkheads in older Grady's.

I haven't heard so much about "rotting transoms, floors, and
bulkheads
in older Grady's!"

When should I expect mine to fall apart?

I dunno about yours, Gene. My 1991 Grady Gulfstream had a

bulkhead
that was
completely rotted out.


I think we have discussed that before and I am still at a loss. My
bulkheads are made of a resin based material... not unlike
micarta....
heavy as lead, but not susceptible to rot.

My bulkhead was a laminate, almost like laminate counter tops.
Everything under the laminated surface was rotted out plywood.

Fortunately, it wasn't structural. It was simply the wall between

the
cockpit and the cabin.


That old boat wasn't spec'd out by John Hertvik, the guy who claims

he
can build better, faster, cheaper computers, without knowing what is
wanted?


No. I'm pretty sure they outsourced fabrication of the bulkheads to

the
union shop down the street.




In the Carolinas? Doubtful. More likely, former dental patients from
south Florida.


Or dentists from Indiana/New Jersey who have gone bad and had their
licenses lifted. Since you can get away with almost anything in Florida,
some also setup shop there.


Florida does not have dental license reciprocity with any other states.

The
pass rate for out-of-state dentists trying to get licensed in Florida runs
between 10 and 30%. So much for your theory, Don.


Florida is tougher on most Professional licenses because of the constant
influx of people. They have there own continuing education standards.
Florida's building codes are tougher than amost anywhere else in the country
as well.

donnie is lost in the brown fog rising from harry's ass........he has really
stepped in to make up for kevin's lack of inane posting.
