Fascist Orgy of Masked Participants...

Hello...

Can anyone tell me how high to take off my 6 inch FRP pipe 'idle' bypass from the proposed waterline of a 62 footer I am currently working on - same with 15 inch thru hull mains - into which we are installing twin Scandia 6800 diesels with twin turbos and dual hydraulic pump take offs ...

Or do you just want me to shut up - 'cause I know nothing and hate everything'...

I have built skiffs , 130 footers, stupid looking sailboats and flat bottomed thingees in the past - but NOT a JS14 - damn...

I am tired and grumpy - sometimes apathetic about it all - but I have a mortgage to pay...

Should we all just get together on a beach and have a bare knuckle bash for money contest - I will buy the pizza - and supply the leather belts...

Or maybe we can all ******** and bore our wives to divorce like tears over discussions about water resistant glues...

That is ALWAYS good - open to WOMEN boatbuilders for rebuke or marriage - I will only consider brunettes...

Cheers...

SH.

And a talent was the weight that a Roman worker could carry (about 60#) for a prolonged time period.
