Hi Mike,
Well, I’ve been a bit of a slacker recently. I haven’t been over to work on
Ronin since last December. My wife and I tend to travel to warmer climes in the
winter. Spain, Nicaragua, Dominican Republic (medical mission work…), Florida
and that sort of thing. Right now I am working on my 1988 Mako 261 center
console so that we’ll have some sort of ability to get out on the water this
summer. I have a locally built wooden 16’ Butler deadrise skiff that has taken
up some time maintaining. Wooden ("Wouldn’t boat”). Our dock was upgraded last
November and I am now re-wiring and re-plumbing it. Motorcycle trips. Azores to
Portsmouth deliver last May with time in England. Blah, blah, blah…
I suppose the good news is that the “hobby” is in put-back-together mode. No
more destruction and reconstruction. I have a lot of things in my shed that are
completed and ready to be put back into and onto the boat. Deck hardware is 90%
installed. Everything has been bedded with butyl. Which is time consuming to
say the least. It may come out of the shed this summer to put the keel back on.
Fingers crossed.
I’m going to assemble some random photos and put them out on a Shared Album
Apple Photos folder. I’ll send you and email for access. Let me know if you
don’t get an email.
Regards,
Dave Godwin
