    Hi guys, I thought some of you might like to see this PDF.

    The work was done by my brother Dave, who was a school teacher & a very skillful man, unfortunately he died a few month back after a short battle with cancer.

    We found this file on his computer..... http://www.cwgsy.net/private/jaketheshed/spearfish.pdf

    Thanks - we sold the boat to a new appreciative owner a few weeks back but she has stayed in our home town.
