                That just stinks man, you mean we will have to wait LONGER. Just kidding bro do it right the first time because that is when something will most likely reveal its ugly side.

                    Looks good mate, very clean work on everything. Can't wait to see this one run! Will you have it at Wattle on Sunday?

                    Have to build something for myself soon. Just waiting to see what the club comes up with on the 2s class as a cheaper way to get back into it.

                        That sucks about the batteries, nothing worse than being so close and having something like that happen.

                        I'm doing good, all these new boats being built is getting me motivated to build something. Almost asked Matt to order me a KB 45 the other night when he was making an order.

                        Really want to get back into it all but its a big cost for me seeing I sold most of my gear a couple of years back. Brought the girl friend a few prezzies recently though so now she won’t complain if I go spending money on myself

                        Did you get a bigger rudder blade for the Lizard?
