Thanks Frank!
We pulled a mold off of the hatches and layed up some nice light balsa cored ones, the old ones weighed a ton

You would have liked the lake today...tornado warnings...the roughest Ive ever seen it. We actually pulled all the boats at the docks out just for safety. Good solid 3s around dome island, spread out 20-30 feet too. Its no ocean but pretty good for a lake

Heres dad pulling the new hatch out of the mold and balsa coring it, should save about 200lbs.

Johnny,

Must be nice to be able to pull everything at the docks when it gets rough. We've got 198 slips - about 36 of which are cruisers and most exposed to the weather. We end up crawling on our hands and knees on the floating docks when we get 3-4's out of the south and something breaks loose. Talk about exciting!

Tom

I was doing real good - right up until the part about my Progression. You'll just have to settle for running it sometime when I come up there to meet you and your dad with Larry. I guess your job is safe - for now.
