[Water Rat]

Rip, Peter, Scott,

Thank you for the kind words and sorry I have not posted back here sooner;
have been stuck in San Diego the last four days on business with no computer
(no fishing eiither). When I have more time, I'll give a better idea of what I'm
planning for the boat and have some questions for the forum. Restoration plans are on hold for this year, as I got moving too late and would likely have missed being ready for next season.

Scott, trust your wife and baby (not a baby anymore I guess) are well. Best wishes to everyone and their families for a happy Thanksgiving.
Chris
