    I hear that, I haven't hardly been on this forum much the past month or so, the economy is killing us, and not sure what will happen with obama spending all the money we don't have either, I just hope his plan works.

        after seeing some of you other guys make a bit of progress I am starting to get my motivation back, but I have not done anything yet. I will most likely work on the hatches next as I dred the body work that has to be done. I also think I am adding lifting strakes like JJ has on his rig. My conopy will be similar to asa's. I might go out to the garage and work on it a bit today. I do need to get it done at some point. I have a second frame cut out that I am going to build into a single powered rig, but this one will be my show piece for sure. It is going to have an adjustable tunnel tab, and some other trick parts.
        The Manx has been sitting dormant, but I think I finally have my motivation back. I hope to see it float soon.

          OK, I did some work on the hatches and deck. I think I have decided not to make the adjustable tunnel tab at this point. I have to button the back end up so I can finish the deck. I also need to do the ducts in the motor hatches.

                nothing, sorry I have worked this week for the first time in 5 weeks, plus school so I was not in the mood to mess with the manx.

                            Hey anything going on any updates, Have you recovered from your little mishap with the bike,
                            Speaking of bikes I rescued a 1986 zx900R from a salvage dealer and it had never been in a wreck I adjusted the valves and fixed a couple of oil leaks and have been riding ever since I paid about 500.00 dollars for it it has been fun.
