How great is this, being able to wake up to the answer for the question that's been nagging at me for many months. Now I can proceed full speed....

I have the steel, the welding skills, the low boy and Mack truck to haul the finished boat. The issues related to attachment design, necessary...
Sigh, Okay, I guess that settles that. Thanks for running those numbers again. And, yes, I'll be only splitting it as two hulls, not...
The 4 hull sections (2 front and two back) bolt together so it is possible to split this boat into two side by side sections, though it would...
Typical job descriptions would be like these: gathering up logs and tree branches that have flushed down the mtn streams and into the lake and...

Yep, they're around 140-some hp and, with twin Carter carbs on each, I'm sure they'e gas guzzlers. I, too, would much prefer diesel--for all the...
