Curtis,

I'm going the other way. Sailed a Westsail 32 for years, but had to give it
up at age 73. So now I'm interested in taking up flying, and maybe building
a Zenith CH 801.

If you're truly interested in building a boat, check out the Glen-L line;
simple designs intended for home builders.

Fair winds and blue skies to you, sir.

Dick

I do sail, just not in a while....Good Idea! I think maybe a stitch and
tape ply sail boat, small at first, to get started.

Well, bummer, Rocketeer. But you pushed it to the limit, and that

a lot of respect. Most people hang it up long before they're told to,
timid
and hesitant and halting. Take your spirit and apply it to something new
and challenging. Maybe build a sailboat and take it offshore....

Cheers, and thanks for a great example,

Hi Folks:

The FAA made it official, and I appealed all the way, but the heart
monitor put the stake in the plans I made. I am grounded. I was going
to build a Renegade, Charlie Lasher's Formula V from the 80's.

So, I have to forget building the plane. I have $300.00 of Wicks
chrome-moly 4130 in 6' lengths, of 4 different diameters. Where can I
get this stuff sold?

And I have the plans, if anyone is interested.
