Did you use your Industrial Grade Grinder to polish it??

Maybe you can find one on Ebay. ;-D

Nothing that much. Had a diver clean off the bottom. Also,
just got a mailsail cover made. The guy who sewed it for
me, didn't get the length right, but he's redoing it. Should
be ready in a day or two.

3. The best sander to use is a 6" orbital hook and loop
--6 hole hook and loop--60-80 grit paper. I also used an
air powered longboards for final sanding--use 80-100 grit.

Beg to differ, but the BEST sander to use is the Powerboard

No, really, I did....honest.



Made a new mount for the bow red/green light. Someone broke it off at my
slip.

Those *******s!


Yeah, I'm sure it was a power boat.


New ign. switch for the Yanmar.
Maintenance. Boring.


new switch is not maintenance. It's a three pole switch off a motorcycle.
I wired it so I can start the engine ( or check the fuel gauge) without
that damn buzzer going off.

But you clearly like to be beaten. That's why you keep coming back

Your spring project reports are due soon. (10 pts)

What sort of projects have you been doing to
improve your boat? Report in, or take a dozen
lashes!

No. Please don't beat me!

I had my crew put on a folding prop. I had my crew secretly modify
the keel.

My report: Hull Fairing and Painting Project

The last few weeks I've been fairing the hull of my
big boat with a goal of getting it in the water by May
30th.


You must be kidding! By Memorial Day, I will have won several series
of races.


I've just about completed the bottom of the hull,
and plan one more layup of fairing material on the hull.
So far I must have over 24 hours of sanding, and my
brother has another 16 hours logged.


Boring! You call that improvements? I call it maintenance.

[all other boring crap deleted]


I want to hear about improvements, not about how you changed your oil.

I take it then that you totally ignored Bob's adamant advise that an
Industrial Grade Grinder with a polishing pad is the ultimate tool for a
mirror like finish on your hull????

Well... off I go to buy a set of motorized router bits. I think I'll take my
Mountain Bike and make sure I drive back and forth in front of the store's
driveway just to be sure I'm at the right place. ;-)

Of course I'll tell everyone I went to the other side of town and not the
local outlet.

I'll also mentioned I raced & passed a Vette along the way......
