"He designed his death like he designed his boats: ugly, even
grotesque to some..."


No wonder the freak adores his designs.

The "freak" *used* to build little rowboats for ponds. He built a larger
rowboat for himself, gave it a paintjob that defines shoddy, and then
defended his sloppy work. Classic "freak."

It was more his technique and ability to make a tool work that I
liked.. It's complicated, I wouldn't expect you to understand.. Either
way, I know you elitists only hate him because he allowed "common"
folks to get all in your water, delicious... snerk

BTW, how long has it been since you put together a little rowboat?


Any time I want a little rowboat I can get 12 feet of aluminum under
$500. Somthing that will fly with 5 hp. We have one with a steering
wheel.

Less than ten years ago I delivered a small dink to a guy for 200
bucks.. Brandy new, for the kids birthday, it was a special favor, but
I only gave up time...

The freak sees hate in the same way a 12 year old. "I hate that!"

Ugly and grotesque isn't something I'm attracted to in a boat design.

Funny as you and your crew are the ones who act like that here, all
day, every day while the rest of us are off having lives.... You
should try it.
