She is a real beauty! Hope you get her in the water sooner than you'd hoped.

Hi Marc,

I added your new pictures to my HMD collection. A view could be used for a postcard! So nice!!

I hope summer starts early for you so you can build on!
With your 'new' family you got a pair of extra hands to help, so maybe the launch will be earlier :wink:

Hey Daniel !!

Still snacking on the cookies :D. I am anticipating seeing photos of your model and the real thing later on. The younger one is too young to help and the other has just joined the Navy...my wife did help me with the electrical and is up to it again when we have a chance. But cruising is what we fantasize about. It will be a blast.

Hope things are good with you my friend. Be good and get cracking 8)

Marc

Hey guys, yes the windows and cushions only left to go. A few small details to do still. The seats are full swivel and front/back without interference. It really needed a good scrub inside the cabin tho.

So what I did; shaped and installed the aluminum flat bar rub rails, installed the Merc remore controller, installed compass, tidied-up and finished the electrical wiring, ran all the controls and cables, added white plastic caps on all visible nuts, added blue rope detail around portholes and inside the door, assembled and installed the seats, added epoxy filets around all the cleats in cabin (crud accummulated in there before) and repainted white, did work on the galley area...odds and ends.

Marc
