The way you keep cranking ou the goodies that poor boat of yours must be getting lonely.

Great job, BTW What are you using to sew with?

PS, just keep a legal PFD on board, no troubles.

: Okay, I know it's not exactly USCG-kosher, but I built my own PFD. I took the
: good PVC foam from an old Stearns ski vest and built a new body for it. I
: used my Lotus Rio Grande as a rough pattern, but I added more lash tabs,
: larger pockets, a tow belt, and a long back pocket to hold a camelbak
: bladder.

: I still need to add the quick-release "ripcord" to the camlock
: buckle on the tow belt.
