... http://captainneal.wordpress.com/ Please don't be envious of how my boat shines and Flying Pig is sort of all dull and chalky looking. Wilbur Hubbard I see you took off that fancy rig for lifting/storing the dinghy. I see you also got another new engine (well, at least there's a white one in this, and the others I see are black). You got things confused. The picture on top is the OLD picture from several years ago. The ones down below are the new pictures. And made a LOT of topsides improvements since seen in the yard when you were doing some other work (apparently redoing the stripe at the top and other trim items which hadn't been done in your original yard shots). Yes, I've been sanding and painting. Still have some to go but the weather has been too windy for much work standing in the dinghy and trying to sand and paint so I'm biding my time. It will calm down soon enough. The paint job, and all the improvements, especially cosmetic ones, make her look just like she must have 20 or 30 years ago! Taking off the name was a good idea, too... The name is still on the topsides. People have to know what boat is sailing past them so fast. . . Come to think of it, it looks so good that it could be used in a brochure! Thanks for the compliment. I like a boat that looks simple and uncluttered. You will note the newer photos look less cluttered than the older one at the top. Wilbur Hubbard |
