But I said no if it were any other boat than a fellow c 38  we might have a green light.   All joking aside larry you and your crew have been awesome with all their help since we arrived.  Thank you.  I'm flying out shortly and returning on Thursday then leaving sat evening.  Are you around at all then?

When we lived in Tallahassee, the home of the Seminoles and bitter rivals of the Florida Gators, a guy with a big stinkpot painted in gator colors had some trouble with cooling. Took him a while to find the deflated Seminole balloon in his cooling intake through hull. I always held in awe the masked man who inserted that balloon into the Gator stink's intake.  But a mop, now that is creative! Shag rug is also a great idea, strung from a line around the rudder?
