I always liked the option for seperate driver and throttleman , are you doing away with that . Had a lot of fun letting people take the wheel with me on the sticks , big thrill for most of them .

Wonder how much extra they would charge you for a second helm option ? Looks like a complete re-do anyway

Hmmm, I hadn't thought of that, certainly a possibility, Thanks Ray!

Didn't change my mind, I just found ways to justify what I really wanted to do; put shorties and five blades on, Hmm, props too big ,need more hp. Engines out, Multitude of wiring gremlins, compass leaked fluid into guages, shorted them out, Hmm, rip dash out, Dash gone I can step down into cabin, try out new Stihl chainsaw on bulkheads, found all aluminum 705" BBC's and six's for sale OK got ahead of myself on that one. Besides, the old parts look good on my golf cart dont'cha think

It made no sense not to fix everything while she was stripped down. There's paint being sprayed this evening.
