    Cdn Ex Pat...

    Hello...
    Holy cow patties...
    OK - how does a CDN - get a lucrative divorce per 50/50 on assets - then move to AUS and set up building boats - on a 'white' mans wage...
    Seriously now - I have thought of SA - but holy - they do hate us...
    Also MASI - I have been told to invest in Silver - but I see oxides as a better bet - rocket fuel - a massive consumable - what thoughts...
    Serious about moving my *** to AUS - I will take care of same...
    SH.

    Not so bad here Sean.

    But not as good as it once was. Economic downturn doesn`t help the boat builders here at the moment ( like any where ) but I think once things pick up a bit , ( Mas may be a little more pessimistic ) I think someone with your skills would do ok here. Queensland . (Weather wise is like Florida )

    Sean set out to see what would happen if you didn`t want to waste any plywood Sam. Ended up at 8ft units of course.

    Like he said ...its all his fault !!!!!:D

    Do Not F'ck With Me...

    Hello...
    Serious - if I pull my money out of this Eco Warrior - Human Resource - post 'No Dogs Beyond This Point' on anchored bouyies - where do I put same...
    I am not kidding - they paid to have signs attached to bouyies after the high tide - that said - 'No Dogs Beyond This Point' - MY DOG CANNOT READ - do you have a F'ckin dog that can swim out to that sign and then turn about - THAT IS VANCOUVER CANADA - send me the bill and I will go High Courts...
    I WANT OUT - the 2010 Olympics are another HOLY - MARKETABLE - joke...
    You should see the mess at False Creek for the atheletes - for which - our entire municipal ambulance service - will be on strike - as they are NOW - and dedicated for 2010 - so hope your mother does not have a stroke in 2010 in Vancouver Canada...
    WTF...

    The Cox needs to be at the front like they do in some of the smaller boats.

    Not that he will be able to steer with a rudder of course with a boat that long and skinny .... mabe a pedal powered bow thruster ????
