I can provide input on two current topics. On my Toto I did glass inside and out, mostly because I knew I would be car topping the boat about an hour to my...
Chuck, What are the approximate cure times at, say 70 degrees, for your Sys 3 and MarineEpoxy which you should have "housebranded" by them as Duckworks Epoxy...
... Depends on the boat. How many seams? Glassing the hull? This article on estimating epoxy amounts from Epoxyworks #18, 2002 has a formula that may prove...
Just to add one more point of data: I glassed taped the seams inside and out on my Toto. I would think one side taping would be much weaker although perhaps...
I have a mayfly 14 that needs the gunnels ( which are beveled already ) and decks attached, the bottom is glued and nailed on but it needs to be trimmed to fit...
... 15D13B ? ... A 15 hp, 1962 Very similar to Jim M's red & white Sea King 15; only differences are paint and emblems. It has a one-piece fiberglass "hood," a...
Looks really good Mike. Keep up the good work. No matter where you go... there you are. __________________________________ Yahoo! Messenger Show us what our...
Max, My preliminary investigation: It has the good "thunk, thunk" sound when you pull the starter rope, there is a knob or two missing on the front. There ...
Looks like that'd be a 1962 15 horse "Buccaneer". The Old Outboard Book by Peter Hunn (International Marine 1991, 1994) is a handy resource for hunting up...
Actually, either an artist or someone adept at using programs such as Corel Draw or Paintshop Pro. Anyway, here's the deal. When completed, my Vector will be ...
"... However the cavitation plate has a piece ... shop and ... have that ... For the time being, I wouldn't worry about the missing chunk, especially if it is...
Mike-- You don't really need an artist. Print the picture. Place another piece of paper over the print. Trace the outline of the figure and whatever detail you...
Mike, I loaded a few crops, colour changes and a negative to http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Michalak_Boats_Photos_Only_2/files/Valhyre / Enjoy. I'll delete them...
It is a horn filled with mead (beer). The name 'Valkyrie' is from the Old Norse, valkyrja, literally, "chooser of the slain." The Valkyrie were the handmaidens...
Hi Wojtek Looks to me as though that would probably be a drinking horn, once full of mead [an alcoholic drink made with honey], sadly now mostly empty, because...
"... I'm curious what this nice girl holds in her hands?..." "...It is a horn filled with mead (beer)...) A nice girl with beer. What a combination. Does she...
Just got back from the pub, after a pint, after my first row of the year. Little growler ice bergs all around my Michalak Sport Dory. Had a nice 1 hour/3.5...
I recently got a catalog for a used book seller that has a listing for Conor O'Brien's _Yacht_Gear_and_Gadgets_, which is described as "An A to Z of devices...
... Now really, if all you wanted was a picture of a maiden holding a beer, you could do a lot worse than copy the St. Pauli Girl logo. Nice buxom lass. Beer's...
Hi Tidmarsh -- Sounds like a cool book. I checked Bookfinder.com to see if there was a cheap copy floating around out there. The lowest is $18, which inclines...
Not a bad idea, Chris, but I'm going for the more traditional Viking 'rape, pillage & plunder' sort of look :) 'Now really, if all you wanted was a picture of...
Hi Guys I'm refinishing and hope to get a lot of use out of a Bolger csd pirogue I built a couple years ago. The trailer I was using went the way of most...
