Great read and you tell a good story, thanks for sharing!!

Snubby, I am paying for the time working in the bildge. I am 300# and 56 years old. All that didn't matter at the time. I was on the carpet like a fat kid on a cupcake trying to figure and fix before testing out the claim of "neutural bouyancy" these boats claim. I have carpet burns on my knees, elbows and a little on the side of my face from reaching as far as I could.

It has been a long time since ANYTHING motivated me enuff to get carpet burns ! I'll leave it at that.
