The geocitysite works well during american deep night hours, so the problem is rather the overstressed server.
The kind of boatbuilding (well shown on his site by lot of pictures) reminds me of my grandfather who built all alone a couple of smaller boats (he was mainly working as a carpenter at shipyards, no boatbuilder in general).
Quite a special task force there in your garage!! Nice.

Hey Mark how did the 28 ft boat work that you had at the show with the two motors hanging on it. It sure looked like some boat to me. What kind of speed did you get out of it?

Have you been in one?
Dean
