YO ROSS! Several months ago, I suggested that you should put together a book on your boat building techniques and plans. I think you've gone beyond that now and should move right into television. With all of the do-it-yourself shows for home re-modelling, etc., you could be right up there. I'd even volunteer to help, but I'd probably be a bad influence on you - the show would probably end up looking more like The Furniture Guys instead of Bob Vila. GREAT JOB!
