I do love Junk rigged boats and junk in general. It has taken me years but I am now learning to appreciate but not take it home. The interesting thing about...
That may very well be a junk John McCallum mentioned to me a while back. He said the construction was quite interesting -- very "workboat fashion" with lots of...
Darn, La verne has us scheduled for another prior commitment on Oct 20 and 21st. which she has paid for. So unless the weather is too gnarly to do, we will...
The major thing that this Junk is missing is the iron drifts that the Chinese drive from one plank to another. If she had the iron drifts then you would not...
The most important thing that I have found in paints is that a really good high building filler, that dries quick is the best base for paint. I use that UMA...
Like Cal I too like the BM M22 Urethane. I used it inside and out on Bobsled the little Glen-L Utility Skiff. Had it in the water for 8 days straight in...

Ariels are very nice boats for Clorox bottles. <g> But she's too big to live on a trailer, so you've got all those mooring hassles and expenses, and you're...

Charley says that Jerry Alvey in Eastside (Coos Bay) is lonely, so we should make a pilgrimage to his outboard shop soon. It's an amazing place, chock full of...
The weekend of the 21st would be my first choice, with the weekend of the 28th second. I'm hoping I'll be busy Friday the 13th or Saturday the 14th getting my...
Either one is OK by me. By the way, I haven't seen any Loon Lake Messabout pics yet, did I miss them? What motor did you find for Sage? Terry John Kohnen...

That weekend works for me. But is that the only weekend you have free? Cal's wife forgot to check the messages here before signing him up for the Opera or...
