I'm envious of both the boat and the skills that got it that way.

I appreciate the compliments! The best part of the build is a sense of accomplishment through personal adversity.

When I was a kid, that was the boat I had to have. I never got around to it and am very impressed with what you have done. It looks great!!

Didn't you try your hand at boat building last year?

Nice looking boat. Is that a 3 cylinder on the back? Bet she will haul the mail.
