Happy Father's Day
 
to all here...

Today, like my birthday a few weeks ago, is just another day in the
boatyard, where we're making good progress, with some notable successes, to
be covered separately...

Skip, Father and Grandfather, the 10th arriving today...

We eagerly await some splashing sounds from your part of the east
coast.

The only splashing sounds you're likely to hear out of Skippy any time
soon is when he steps behind his boat and takes a ****. LOL!

Now, Wilbur, you know that at our ages, we don't splash, we drizzle :{))

We're taking a month or so to do wedding and grandchildren stuff, so will be
delayed (again!) but expect somewhere in mid- to late August for launch...

Can't post about the rudder just yet (too busy working), but very good
news...

Only if one has an enlarged prostate. Mine is fine so far. Besides, if one
drinks lots of beers the pressure in the bladder becomes quite high until
relieved.

But, mid-August is the height of hurricane season. Surely you should come
up with more projects so you can launch in December right after hurricane
season. ;-)

Yah, that's been suggested by outside observers who didn't know when we
expected to go back in the water.

Instead, we'll come down and see you as part of our shakedown :{))

Skip, back to work, now taping for priming on the bootstripe

Hell, I'd offer to buy you a beer but I hear tell Lydia won't allow you to
have alcohol. Maybe a Dr. Pepper?? LOL.

While cruising the Keys, in case a hurricane is in the offing, you could
always sail up to the Little Shark River where there are some fine little
hurricane-proof creeks upstream to tie up in. The Bahamas don't really
have much in the way of decent hurricane holes. Those few there are get
filled with idiots whose boats will break free and sink or damage your
boat.
