Default You're all wet, or the how to dry out your wet hull tango

Thanks.

Hmmm. I wasn't even aware of a yard north of the bridge road.


Riverside Marina
2350 Old Dixie Highway
Ft. Pierce FL 34946

Physically just over the line in Lucie, with a FTP mailing address.

L8R

Skip, urgently working to get out of this filthy, theft-ridden yard

PS the system is working. Wetting it has opened up new sources of WSM (as a
technical paper done for the USCG many years ago refers to water soluble
material) which have absorbed water, bringing it out to the surface where it
washes off readily. Grinding back until the laminations are secure in each
of those spots (confirmed by the absence of any more weep spots, even after
pressure washing) gives us a reasonable expectation that after a few more
cycles of that, and then doing a proper repair on the ground-out spots, our
pleasure should be enhanced the next time we're hauled, however many years
that is from now (our last bottom job lasted 4 years)...

"Believe me, my young friend, there is *nothing*-absolutely nothing-half so
much worth doing as simply messing, messing-about-in-boats; messing about in
boats-or *with* boats.

In or out of 'em, it doesn't matter. Nothing seems really to matter, that's
the charm of it.

Whether you get away, or whether you don't; whether you arrive at your
destination or whether you reach somewhere else, or whether you never get
anywhere at all, you're always busy, and you never do anything in
particular; and when you've done it there's always something else to do, and
you can do it if you like, but you'd much better not."
