Hey Guys, thanks for all the kind words and encouragement. I will keep you all up to date on the progress of this project and will post a few pics. I used to be a member of the club and was somewhat active. I went to Bob Grubbs meet every year when it was in Pottstown Pa and I went to the Edgewood Md meet for about 5 years in a row. I have read Peter Hunns book from cover to cover about 50 times, lol. I always take it with me on plane rides. I have about 20 outboards ranging from 1939 to 1966. My favorites are my 66 Ducktwin, my 39 Elto and my 57 Bigtwin. I also have a 62 Fisherman that gets put into use every weekend during the summer. I kind of got away from the swap meets and projects because of my 3 kids. Between the sports and school stuff I just couldn’t justify the time so it all went on the shelf(except my 62 Fisherman). My job can be stressful at times and I had a bad bought with anxiety a few years ago and a heart scare last year. Finally this year I decided it was time to allow myself to have some decompression time and do the things that I love. I’m really enjoying the restoration of this boat. I got it when my son was 2 years old. He is now 13. When I finish it I am giving it to him. We are gonna call it Noah’s Ark. His name is Noah. I’ll be re-joining the club soon and I will be at the Edgewood meet this year in April. Thanks again for all the good advice and help
