    MANIE, YOU MAKE ME PROUD MY BROE :D

    Stuff the rest - YOU are the only guy you have to please.

    In fact, you've spurred me on to publish my rough drawings of the proa I'm building. Please give me a day to clean them up and remove the inspirational comments and coffee/beer spills.

    I'm an old fart. [I know that - a white van driver told me just the other day] :p

    I don't know CAD - tried it once but the technology was too much for this 1949 brain. So I designed it like they taught me in school - Tee square, set square and a set of french curves for the non straight bits (don't get ideas you randy ********!)

    Like your design, Manie, this is very, very real to ME. Untold hours of learning, reading, cross-referencing, and a few beers too - have gone into it. But in the end IT IS MY DESIGN. I'm proud of it! :D

    And (Quote - eponodyne) - "Let the record show I am considering moving to RSA.", let me say that the height of confusion for me (as a South African) was having my Nissan bakkie stolen with a "Proudly South African" sticker on the tailgate. Absolutely true!



    ... and the beer was great - thanks Manie
