Well, Tom came by today to take a look at an engine I am putting on.
Poor guy just stood there most of the time shakin' his head. The rest
of the time he spent chuckling and mumbling something about a "big
piece of crap":0 I am not sure if he was talking about the boat, the
engine, or both Oh well, just to see him there shakin' his head was
almost worth it Almost. I just don't get it, what's not to like?
It's even got a low transom!!

It is what it is - one of those knock around skiffs you used to see in
boat yards doing all the grunt work.

Of course the paint scheme leaves a lot to be desired, but it's a
sound boat.

And of course, not a good example of the boats I have built in the
past. I would not own such a boat, or build one for that matter if it
was not commissioned and then abandon. Circumstances put me far from
home with no, boat but this one, so it'll do for now. I have adapted
and it is a pretty good family boat for us, for now. I am thinking
about a new paint job too
