Well folks Jim Cate came by today with cold Corona beer in hand. No
Kiddin.

Very Nice fellow but due to heavy storms and a muddy launch site he
had to come by in a Ford.

Ill let him get use to his new boat and get a few more trips under
his belt before we meet for the big race. Seems to be a man of his
word and Im sure he will show up on the agreeded upon date and time.

Thanks For The Beer Jim! And enjoy your new boat.

Best Regards,

Joe

Well, I guess he can't be all bad, but I hope he offered you
one of the beers.

After all the discussion about Joe's "rust bucket" boat Red Cloud, I was
very impressed with it. He keeps it in top shape, with a sparkling
bright red-orange-yellow paint job. Seems like a great blue water
sailing vessel, and it has a retractable center board that can provide
an unusually shallow draft for a vessel of that size.

Not even a sockpuppet would claim that a MacX is a great boat.

Scotty, Even a Mac owner can tell if a boat has any rust or not or
weather it is well maintained. Jim has a sharp eye.

What, no green? No orange either, guess he's talking about all the safety equipment it international orange.

Not so sharp that he would run not walk away from a MacXipad.
But, I believe you when you say you don't have rust on your boat.

Well I must admit at the 8th frame above deck under the cap rail I
found a 1/2"X 1/4" spot of rust this week. I will get out the needle
gun, wire wheel, endsallrust, metcoat primer and epoxy top coat and
stop it as soon as we have weather that will permit me to do a proper
job,need a Humidity level below 20%. After that I will use my
Elektrophysik-Koln Mikrotest and measure the paint thinkness. I also
plan to dive under the boat and check my zincs and see if I need to
scrub the bottom.
