With that being said, as stated before this boat is and will be a neat piece.

Your little yacht is quite the work of art also, little more traditional than mine. She is beautiful, you should be very proud.
The scuppers come from the larger sportfish, the covers are designed so when backing down water doesn't come in.
I just really wanted the boat to drain when at rest and washing, and if as Strick suggest, that she gets a "little" topheavy, I will have some plugs. :-)

Classic.

Any ping pong balls on them curious scupper caps or is it simply a diversion principle?

You gonna be in the Northern or Southern Republic of CA?

[Caymanboy]

Simply diversion.
Hell, I'm gonna be in Cali, Isn't it all the same? :-)
Northern, fly into SFO, drive to Santa Cruz, Monteray, then on to Big Sur.
We will not be swimming-------.

Me thinks it looks better then the ping pong ball plastic deals that I have on both my boats. What are they made out of ? SFO tarmac is right on the water. I think I can get the 20 sceptre right up to the beach.... if you need a Seacraft fix while you here

Last time I landed in SFO it was 0100. And SYT was navigating with an Iphone, after she had been cocktailing the whole way out, she kept turning the phone, wasn't funny at the time, but is more so now.
I just sold an engine and shipped it to Santa Cruz, that gentleman offered me a ride also, believe it or not, I am ready for a break from boating, and I am really adverse to wearing ski clothes yachting. Thank you for the offer though. :-)
They are made from FRP, FRP exhaust tube cut in half, then modified so they are glued on, no screws.

If you find yourself wanting good reasonably priced Italian food while traveling through Monterey check out Rosines http://www.rosinesmonterey.com/

I will do that, eating while traveling is a passion. Maybe we can meet up somewhere for a lunch or something? I arrive on the 25th around 1300 and leave 2400 on the 2nd.

I agree, but imho I still think this is the cleanest look!

[Caymanboy]
