E-mail me off group about your boat. Thanks.

I'm the current owner of *my* dad's boat - 16 ft money sucking machine with
a propeller g.

My sister might be getting the "family" boat (free) for Christmas evil
grin.

Redecking project is almost complete - marine plywood cut/spar
varnished/glue/marine carpet/stainless hardware/etc. Completion (a.k.a. -
reinstall pieces into das boat) can wait 'till April. Boat's in its own
little winter cocoon now.

Family calls my season-end "keep snow and rain out of the boat" effort The
Aircraft Carrier. I built an 8 ft high wall x about 12 ft long (with 16"
stud centers) then set it down, across the boat. I attached 7 short legs,
which raise the starboard side up - for water runoff. The legs also lift the
(framed only) wall over the steering console (no windshield on this fishing
boat). Bought a 15'x25' brown/green tarp at Menard's to cover the whole
thing. Whole setup (lumber/screws/tarp/bungees) cost $40 max. When
disassembled, the lumber fits between 2 stud sections in the garage - for
summer storage. Cheapest part of ownership has been putting the boat away on
the slab for the season. g

12" of snow forecast for the Twin Cities this weekend.

rule about not buying cars, planes or boats from relatives, or selling
such to them -- it's much better for family harmony that way, as I've
learned through experience (wanna buy a boat that has only had one other
owner, my father
