Re: Eric's C21
Eric, I've just discovered you're back on the air. Congrats on your boat cover and your new business venture.

Re: Eric's C21
I've been chatting (very sparsely) with Eric on other mediums. I think I can say "life is well" but busy for him. I'm sure he will pop in here and elaborate.
Re: Eric's C21
I'm doing okay guys. Just some health issues and cold keeping me from boat work. The boat cover did well until it snowed.
It collapsed and the snow became rain, the rain turned to ice... I'm just now getting it corrected. Thanks for thinking about me.

Re: Eric's C21
I had a similar experience with my "uncollapsable" homemade Grady cover. My episode started with wind. Lots of it.
Glad to see you back!
There are only two seasons in Vermont: boating season, and boat-building season.

Re: Eric's C21
Good to hear from you Eric. Keep your head up and work on the boat when you can. Best wishes to you.
