Re. Still alive...

Well, I am still alive as of October 2014, and just getting back to boat building finally. Did the lay-up for my CF coaming ring tonight (Vaclav One Ocean style). I'm stepping down as Fire Chief after two very demanding years. Working two jobs finally sort of caught up to me in February when I had a completely unexpected heart attack. I was in good shape, worked out regularly, ate well, but you can't outrun your genes. I ended up with one stent for a 95% blocked coronary artery, checked out a couple times through the process, got to se Elvis and everything, but good now. I work out an hour every day at zero-dark-thirty, and am simplifying my life, therefore stepping down as chief and getting back to my boat shop.
