Political blurbs and agendas

[Sean Herron]

Hello...

Well - I managed to get the six inch fiberglass tube exhaust bypasses' into both sides of the boat today - each about a 20 foot run downhill and then out the bottom of the swim grid...

Isn't that very interesting...

It is indeed boat related - big boat...

I had to hold back the fiberglassers until the whole thing was graded and roughed in but they still managed to do their part of the job today as well - so tommorow we can hang the lifts and mufflers - mufflers the size of a little man...

The intrigue and suspense of custom boat building - oooh...

Hello...

I think you may mean John Brandlmayr - built by Spencer Yachts which was near the end of No. 6 Road in Richmond BC - If my memory serves me and it does not beyond finding my last stashed bottle - they were beside the glass shop that lays up the hulls for Monaro Marine which is owned by Dan Parker - an old Sonny Levi and Aranow disciple...

Spencer may still be going - I can actually check on my way home some day - and have the builder Email you...

You have probably been to this site http://www.spenceryachts.net/information.htm ...

I have no personal experience with same other than when I used to go pick up a Monaro hull - a Spencer has not come through the shop or the yard - which might speak for their quality - I remember them taking an otherwise LONG time with the detailing on the deck coring (a good thing) - but I have not been around same all that long to date...

As for the ongoing politics - I LOVE IT ALL - and can hold my own - and always will - and when I don't - I just let the air out of some deserving tires...

Remember - I may be thinking of someone else all together here - they come and go...'

Gonzo - I offer a humble handshake - and offer this - you and many include the word choice in your arguements here - do not use this word lightly when argueing opinion against belief - this site is where I 'chose' to spew and vent and rant and I may lose it once and awhile, so what - I do this S'hit for a living (as do many) and I choose to relax here - because I can - this because I assume that this site is inherently frequented by like minds, builders and designers and workers who by same nature are more likely to understand the mental meandering of a professional (daily grinder) boat builder - I am NOT argueing with anyone or with you - but I do prefer the company of what I assume to be 'like minds' - perhaps you have simply misunderstood me (I am used to it... ) and my intent and what is my lot in life - if this is not enough for you then let the politics reign and this campfire shall be smothered - as I say...

This is a very good site and I believe an open policy will preserve same - even if that policy simply preserves a 'professional space' for RANTS AND FOWL - that is what I think should be the new title for a new forum space - boatbuilders are a strange lot - many are hardened and many are worn out, some are idealistic beatniks, others are ignorant but willing newbies - I suggest a forum for the hardened internal men and women who like me do it 40 or more hours a week and want to vent a bit - how about that Jeff - same could generate a lot of sideline intereset but would require some internal and inherent (same) and STRINGENT (legal) guidelines - which men and women who do same daily adhere to - 'agree to the job'...

Hehe, Sean

I wholeheartedly agree with your sentiment. But it should also be for people that aren't working with this more than forty hours a week (otherwise I wouldn't be able to partake).

A blurb is an out of context post. If it is related to the topic, even when it relates to politics, it is not a blurb.

AH, I see - thanks
