It's all good. Not quite what I had in mind but I like the way it has turned out. It seems to have gotten some responses from those that may not have otherwise, and that was/is the idea. Come on in and say HI :)

Only been a lurker for a short time but have offered up a couple of posts and pics. Great forum and a great bunch of guys and girls. I just wish there were more info on here about our classic woodies. I plan to become a supporter/contributer at some point. As for me right now, I've just about completed my custom launching/retrieving trailer and most of the repairs the surveyor noted. I hope to have the 65 in the water on the 1st of May and plan to be on her/him every weekend until the dreaded "end of season" comes around.
Oh, I'm also a smoker trying to quit but I find it difficult since I brew my own beer. For me, a beer in hand requires a smoke in the other. Just can't seem to break that habbit. But when I'm not drinking, I don't even think about the smokes. Go figure.....

Enjoy the upcoming season. too bad none of you on here float on "Rough River Lake" here in KY..
Jim, don't let the lack of woodie content prevent you from asking questions. Though most now own glass, several owned and or worked on wood in the past and may have something to contribute. I'm sure there are also others currently working on thier woodies that would benefit from the knowledge you have acquired from your poject. So stick with us. I've never had a glass boat but have been around boats for a long time and I'm always learning something new here. Thanks for posting and keep us in the loop on your project, we love pictures :wink:

First: I'm not the owner of our 1976' F-32 Sedan Flybridge :D

But lucky circumstances brought this nice Lady from an auction for less than 10 k EUR last year, my friend Detlef E. won with just 1 bid.

Most of your's already know that, restoration is finished now and we're looking forward to be the 'King' on our lake this year :twisted:

About alcohol: We had to divorced from one of our team.
He was always grey in evening and neighbours were very distorted by his night-partys.

I've all driving licenses - for cars and trucks, but have to pass my exam for boats this spring.

Detlef E. also have no license and dont want to make this in future.
So it is my part to carry him out and away (he pays that gas).

Hope to be not to out off topic :roll:
