OK, I know I said I was going to stop work on the new boat for a while but, the other day I went to put a few coaming strips on, the next thing I know that's done. Tonight I went to the shop to put on one stem piece. An hour and a half later both stems are done, the few staples in the hull are all pulled out and I catch myself planing away.

My wife has decided to have me committed.... to a seven day cruise, to get me out of the shop I think!

WHAT IS IT? The smell of cedar That's doing it? The paddles didn't get me away from it. Could it be those slim sexy curves?

I've been told I can only visit the bbs a couple more days AND THAT"S IT!!! But I do get to go paddling in Cozumel! I don't think that will help the building fever one bit!
