Sean,

Feisty as ever, you still recovering from too much fun the other night? Thought you'd be fishing instead of surfing ;->

Hey Kent, does TU stand for Trout Unlimited?  Or Tango Uniform?  :-))

 Thanks in advance for your help Al. My boat is an Outcast Fish Cat

 I see the Outcast web site is dead which makes me fear they may have
 gone TU. Hope not.
