Did ya know the average American consumes 947 pounds of steel a year.

Guess I snatched away a few years of a good thing from you plastic,
resin glass wussies. Back to fillin your blisters, spider cracks and
rott, and mushy spots..but make sure anything on your boat that needs
to be tough... is made of steel.

My docking light fixtures are titanium, NOS for an Abrams M1A1 Tank fit
right in on RedCloud.

English steel of the 70's is famed for it pureness and resistance to
rust. Just look at all the X Jags still on the road.

Power? hey Joe, yesterday I picked up a steel rolling pin, 53'' dia.,
16' long, 95,000 lbs.
At the grinder there was 5 of them sitting there that were broken in
half. Imagine a pin that size broke in two.

Two words for ya Joe....Alum inum.

I like Al la min e um. There is a 52 ft center cockpit motor sailing
Ketck outside my aft cabin window that I would love to have. Center
cockpit 3 very roomy staterooms, huge lounge, galley, bilges you can
eat off. Catipillar main, 8kw super quiet Onan, The inside is kinda
ugly, but I could re-model. Thing is the want 325K for her. I will see
if I can find it on-line and post a link. Her hull is very close to
redclouds shape.

Dont have a spare 325K right at this moment. If he cut the price in
half Id buy it today.

It basically abanoned to the broker. Has been for a year or so.
And it's right out my office window. Thing is for the same money I can
get a perfect 3 acre plot of land with 400 ft of deepwater frontage.
