Yesyou're right. I do work hard. We all do. And we need to go boating! It doesn't matter what the market conditions are, gotta go boating!

When times are hard the Vikings didn't stay at home, they went boating. Ok they killed for food and territory, but that's another story.

We will have to work forever and that's why we need to go boating!

Rick, any updates?

Noli, as of today. All glass work is complete. You should be a happy man. 6 hour grinding job in a Tyvec suit finished it off. Tomorrow, the cabin will be gelcoated . Getting psyched yet?

I've been psyched ever since you first sprayed the gel coat on the hull mold! Good to hear that the delivery is in sight.When do you think the interior will be completed? JC indicated that he has the seats etc., in the other factory.

What did you grind for 6 hours?

Ground all the glass on the bulkheads to make it smooth, and the hull to deck seam which is fully glassed.

I haven't picked up the 350's yet because I don't know who'll be doing the rigging. If ocean outboard does it, then a loan will be placed with ocean for the engines. I don't exactly have the money for the twins in cash form

In addition the stock market isn't all that hot these days.

I've spoken to East Coast. I haven't yet approached Ocean Outboard nor Trenton Marine here in NJ.

Do you have any other hi-perf Merc dealers that you've worked with and recommend?

noli, give Typhoon Service Center a call. Located in Toms River N.J. a call. ask for Chuck, or Frank. One of the best shops on the East Coast, they will have everything you need or want. 732-477-6157

Noli, Joey at ECM is one of the best around in my opinion. Here are a few shots from yesturday. The cabin is all gelcoated and so is the well area in the bilge.
