He built a "chris craft" style mahogany skinned boat for the Talleys at our Nelson site. I did all of the mechanical and electrical side of it, So I fabricated everything out of 316 stainless, Engine mounting plates? Stainless, Little bracket to hold some stupid thing? Stainless. You want period style gauges? sure thing! I proceeded to buy the most expensive Hot Rod style gauge set that I could find. I spent as much money of theirs as I could. Unfortunately I couldn't talk the Talleys into a period correct engine, so I had to put in a diesel yanmar.... yawn. Got along alright though, I got it up to 32 Knots on the sea trials, coz you know im going to test the fuck out it Thanks for listening to my sharn 13 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GARDRB Posted January 6 Report Share Posted January 6 Just found this while looking to see if anyone is sailing on here. We just watched Hold Fast coz of the recommendation. That dude Moxie Marlinspike is a pretty big deal in computer security. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moxie_Marlinspike 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
