    Still keeping busy at home doing some minor GRP repairs on stinkpots, retro fitment of buoyancy into small craft, issues COF's, small GRP moldings etc.
    Also runs a small electro plating concern at home doing zink, tin, nickel, chrome and copper plating as well as aluminum anodizing.

    Best of all, I have now the time on hand to build my Lotus 7 replica that was 30 odd years in the making and getting along nicely now.:cool:

    Guillermo, that's one of the perks of retirement - boredom. With time on hand one look at the mirror through different glasses at different times and sometimes (reads bored) do not like what you see and start experimenting - you should see my "Don King" phase before this pic was taken...:eek: and not to mention the current appearance - much to the annoyance of the old bird.
    Perhaps that's why she continuously nags me to find something to keep my mind busy.:(

    Finally, I prefer to stay retired from boat building and although I am posting again, it is only in the "Open Discussion" section and not at the Boating forums. My website speaks for me to those needing some advice;)
