Measuring in imperial units? I thought you all were metric up in Canada, plowboy. In fact outside of the U.S.. Liberia, and some god-forsaken Pacific Island (whose name I forget right now), I always had the impression outside of these 3-4 that the whole world worked in metric. Is that a...

Cut out a seam right down the middle?

It's looking good as is. A little judicious prep and paint, and you're golden. [thumbzup]

Hoping we get a photo or two of the happy occasion. :-)

Back before sea kayaks, Folbots were the go-to boats for wilderness river expeditions. I hadn't seen any in a long while, and your Peican sort of looked similar. Happy boating!

The weak link might actually be human error; and the guy who thinks he's smarter than the machinery, you know!?

I didn't realize that "AC-130" is the their gunship designation. I guess that IS their glamor role, bar none. The C-130 is one of the most classic airframes of the entire world. I count myself lucky to have shipped aboard them at one time.

That's perfect: - You could hide that truck in the citrus section of a market anyplace in the world. But how did you get those paint lines so sharp? It's got to be more than just good old frog tape. How do it know!?

I really like your boarding ladder, MUDLORD. That's great set-up. [thumbzup]

It's all good; that's how you keep the love alive. :-D

Sorry to hear about the damage; but, man that is a pretty spot! I bet the night sky there is absolutely unbelievable (i'm a city kid here, you see; you can practically count the stars on two hands).

Yeah, it can be tough to convince people of their own ignorance, but it never hurts to tell them "I'm not sure that's a good idea, and I'll tell you why". That shirt doesn't have the weight and bulk to drop that cable to the deck (which is the purpose). I can still remember the training video...
