1. The Marketplace Forums can be useful for members who know one another well from forum discussions and offline communications and wish to post boatbuilding tools, drafting tools, molds and tooling, and other professional equipment for sale or trade. However, caution and good judgement should always be used. Especially when considering any business with anyone not already well known to you and trusted, due diligence must be used to confirm details and identity and be sure the transaction is safe before any money or property changes hands. Always use good judgement and perform due dilligence and follow these guidelines.

    Mas should stay, though I don't always(only maybe 40%) agree with him, because even though the endless postings become tedious, he is at heart a decent fellow with a common interest in all things boat, which may save him from obsession with all things gold.

    RHP,
    Correct it is the peelply marker - I believe some fool left the peelply in place and just painted... so with the amine blush (wax) and dirt of the build, the paint would not stick and the seal was not waterproof :eek: :eek: :eek:
    Judy,
    :D I am a 'timelord' (not "Doctor Who" - a character based on me, but 'a masalai' or spirit being), and regularly regenerate, 20 seconds later I was "fullgrown mature" amazing isn't it :D:D:D - - - Little grandson then three-and-a-half - - -

    That is probably it, as for photographs, until after the Xmas break when work will commence on the bridgedeck-coachhouse.... The team are busy sanding, bogging, sanding, bogging, sanding, undercoating etc etc...

    With the work on the coach-house and weight estimates, final positioning for heavy items will be considered, placement of winches, some smaller hatches and safety rails and.... and.... and.... the list is listed...

    Have a peaceful and pleasant time with your families and friends, all the best - - masalai...

    Your making it look easy Mas, Im sure it is'nt.

    Im off to Malaysia where Christmas is less----- humbug.

    Christmas does not start till 25th we are now in 'lent'

    I hate it, and yes I am a grumpy ole fart, which is one of the more endearing sides to my personality,--apparently.

    Depends on what you call "easy"? - opening my wallet and forever pulling out big wads of money to pay for things....

    That bit may be easy but how did the big wads of money get in your wallet in the first place. Ille bet that was'nt easy as many people go into Christmas with little to eat.

    You mean your workers are on Christmas break already?

    How many days after?

    Refer to my opinion of Australia taxes thread.
