Shawn, Worm said I have to finish the garage before I can start on the boat. Don't worry though, we are making good progress. I should be bringing it back to you next week on my way home.

well, I am moving on to the next boat to paint ..........the JDS DSH of Craig Fjarlie coming this weekend..........

then the Dawe CSH and CSR repairs, then paint my new Darneille DSH, then "maybe" build my JDS CSH, then.......I am sure something else will show up............ah hell, maybe I should just take the 08 racing season off and get everything fixed, rebuilt or painted for 09?????

Your boat are like fine furniture! Look forward to the trip with the boys .....

lonnie morris's new DMR

I am refinishing a flyer. When I was buying varnish a guy in line said he was a cabinet maker and he dampens the wood to expose "loose" fibers. He said he sands it down again and varnishes after it dries. This is supposed to provide a much smoother surface.

Has anyone tried this and if so how well does it work?

I've done this on all the boats I have built, and it works great. The trick is to make sure the wood is completely dry before you apply the varnish.

New 25MH

Here is the latest one for Gerry Muncy. 10' 8" and 104# with all the hardware and not built like an egg shell to save weight.

Next up is Kyle building his new J hydro. Progress may be a little slower on it as he is the builder while I'll just advise and enjoy some beverages!

That being said, he is excited enough about it that he may build quicker than I do!
