Thanks for the kind words. I'm pretty happy how things turned out. My only complaint is some sags in the varnish on the hull. I did the varnishing at night with poor lighting so I didn't see them. There will be a redo at a later date.

I have a floating cabin reserved and plan to bring her to the Gathering. The only hang-up is my daughter is expecting our first grandchild in late August. If all goes as planned, I'm good. If she's late, who knows.

We'll check and see if we have a doctor. If not, I know where the hospital is. It's only 4 or 5 miles. :wink:
