Although, I love Yogi......
My first baseball game....My Dad took me to Yankee Stadium..in the 50's..... I was very young and just as we sat down on the first base line..... Yogi got up to bat...(We were obviously a little late for game time)...... Anyway.....bang!////right out of the park....... Man! What a way to be introduced to a game.
My favorite Yogi quote......... and it explains a LOT in my life.
" When you come to the fork in the road....... Take it."

The keel delaminated out on the ocean, and we almost sunk comming into Pt. Pleasant. He basically cut a whole in the bottom and started fresh, even put some extra stringers in for added measure. I was in a rush to get the boat home for the winter and he got it done on time.
While the boat was in the shop, he let me take the hook out of the bottom and gave me a lot of pointers.
I recommend Frank to anyone I know who needs work done.

I remember seeing that boat (Miss Puerto Rico) in the Fla boat trader and thinking that would be a cool poker run boat, had canopies if I remember right, T2X, thanks for your insight about El Boss...Matt
