Well thanks Apex, That is the boat I am going to build when I get a job and move out of the house. That boat will show people that I can build a good boat. I will use it a display boat for my boatyard. Remember what I said about starting a boatyard then expanding it to a shipyard? Well I am still going to do that. When my company is big enough, I will go on a fishing vacation in this:

Also, do you remember me saying that the first thing I am going to do is build a diesel or a steamer? well that is the boat. Might come and visit you in it . It's big enough to go from the East Coast of the United states to Hamburg, Germany I think.

It is big enough! But start with the smaller one first, It´s frustrating when it takes years before the success becomes obvious!

Well yeah, I am not going to build that big one anytime soon. I am going to wait 'till I have at least 100 mil.

After reading some of the controversy going on in some of the threads. I hope it is o.k. to post this link here for you all to maybe relax and enjoy. We (wife & I) do most of our boating on a river though we usually only frequent the first few pools of it. Last weekend we took a holiday and floated our boat the entire length of the river to the confluence of the Ohio River and had a real nice time enjoying the scenery and the camaraderie of our fellow boaters. If you'd like to view them well you can click on slideshow and then hit F11 and many of the pictures are then large and easy to view. I hope those of you who chose to view them enjoy them.

OhhooooOOOoOo, we'll all be ruined... corruption everywhere... Global has become POLITICS and everyone is anger and retribution is in the offing, Porn, well just in the mind, but the beauties sure seem temptingly interested? - Me, I think I will just have a quiet beer and watch the action from a distance
