Cinch nailing and Eagle claws..
 
We will be using more nails for the Brockway, the boat is designed to
be built with nails. When used properly and with the right materials,
nails boats are great vessels:

Here is a short essay, while I get started on the Brockway.

Yeah, I do like it a little warmer, but in the evenings, it's warmer
than the air.

When Lake Erie gets into the upper 70's it is no longer refreshing on
a hot day.

Do you heat your pool or use a solar cover?

Solar cover here in CT. Extends the season by a few weeks on either
end. Well worth it.

My BIL (when he had a pool) also used a solar cover........a very
efficient way to heat the pool.

Kids.......hell, they will jump into and enjoy splashing in 60 degree
water anyway.

At 62 degrees, I wear a shorty suit while surfing. And that is about the
minimum temp I will use a shorty in. When I used to skin dive and scuba, I
had 1/4 farmer john suit and I still got cold in the 55 degree Pacific.

The only time I've ever been "cold" was on a ice dive while training
for ice rescue. The course was up at Lake Champlain and the ice was
about two foot thick. We went in with full dry suits, Gore-tex long
Johns, sweat shirt/pants and electric socks - still froze my ass off.

Man that was cold. However walking upside down under the ice more
than made up for it. :)

I can say that one other time, I was literally knocked out senseless
at Lake Alexander in Dayville, CT. Dive team drill/body recovery
drill thing. What none of us knew was there was a spring in the
deepest part of the lake and that was our search area - 30 feet under
tow we hit that spring and the temp dropped 20 degrees instantly.

I swear I almost passed out. :)

Yeh, but you grew up in cold weather. I grew up 10 blocks from San
Francisco Bay. 29 degrees was about the lowest I ever saw where I grew up.
Thinner blood.

Who is "we'? I was born in Connecticut, and spent all of my springs,
summers, and early falls living along the shore. So did a lot of other
people. I never heard that term. My "bestest" boyhood chum lives near
Pond Point, Milford, in a nice old Victorian, and I'll bet he never
heard that term, either. He's a native of Waterbury, went to Brown in
Rhode Island, and lived most of his life along the shoreline there.

I thought you lived way inland, far away from the Sound.
