Jim, I noted some postings said discussion on the rules is detrimental to the Class. I don't think so. I think discussion is the beauty of the internet. You...
I was wondering if anyone has used gorrilla glue for the deck to hull flange? I thought it would work good since it would expand to fill all the gaps to block...
