So are they 2- or -3? That cav plate seems like it is pretty high but it might be the dark picture...

Dock,

Well I told you awhile back that Adam, Greg, Lane, & I was going to replace the Fountain style steering wheel with one like Lucky 7s, and Split D. while your boat is in town. I just could not wait any longer to show the improvement......It looks even better than in these photos!

PS. This was your birthday present from all of us.

Dave,

I'm laughing like crazy over this. Funny but I was just looking at the picture of the new helm today and wondering what the steering wheel actually looks like. I guess with old age come patience and I was doing fine and expecting to see it on the 5th at the Winter Blow Out. I'm laughing at you not being able to keep it a surprise!

I just had the wife to come in and look at it and she is all smiles. She says it adds a lot to the boat and she really thinks it looks sharp! What more can I say.

You guys are all right and that is very much appreciated by both of us even though it is my birthday present. Now I guess I'll have to get Adam a present since we share the same birthday!

Thanks guys

Doc

P.S. I will miss the Reggie special.

Dave,

Thanks again for cleaning up the VHS radio. When you told me you had a special compound that would turn it bright white I had no idea how good it would turn out.

That's the first time I have seen it since you put the handy work on it.

What is the name of that stuff again?

Thanks
Dock

It's called Overton's, or you can use Boat US that works just as well....

Ed,

Glad you are as pleased with their work as I am. It's really nice to have a one stop shop like they have up there now.

Interior, rigging, detailing, fiberglass work, custom paint, LED's, stereo systems, you name it and they can handle it.

We'll see you in 10 days.

Take care
Doc

P.S. When you were talking about the 20 lbs of crap I thought you were referring to Greg!
