Peter, you don't know me but I'm glad you got your business up and running. I'm not sure how many times I read through your build but it was a lot. I hope the future is bright for you. And, welcome back!

Yea Peter congrats! Can't wait for you to restart the Hydroplane buy yes after all you have gone through getting the ride up and running you need a vacation. Some place where you can just lay back and hoist a few and have them treat you like royalty.
