Thanks for stopping by. Good to hear from you.

Yeah, it's even better in real life. I'm pretty pleased with it. I'm just Old and Slow. Work has been real busy and tiring so coming home in the evenings and getting work done on the boat has NOT been happening to frequently. I'm taking 10 days off over Christmas so Hopefully I can get the Entire Seating for the boat done in that time period. We'll see how it pans out.

Well, I got the Back of the Seat 75% completed. Framing done, Foam attached & Plasticized and the newly sewn Cover pulled on. Now the fun of stretching tugging and pulling and stapling begins. Anyway you can kinda see what she's gunna look like.

wog, That seat looks like a pro did it. You and your wife should do it on the side and make a little cash. Very nice work again.

Sorry for asking but I haven't been on for awhile and just wondering what's up with the op next to your name?

It's a new forum feature I found out about and asked to have turned on. It denotes the thread's "original poster". I though it would be very helpful here where many of our threads are so long and have so many different posters.

I love that photo... I USUALLY put quite a few lights up for the holidays, But didn't this year, since I was busy with other projects... I was going to do what this guy did- since my neighbor USUALLY puts up a nice display- But he got lazy this year, too... Oh well, there's always next year

Judge, Having seen your craftsmanship and sewing skills, I have NO DOUBT, that you will SURPASS my abilities on the sewing machine. When you get ready, and if you want, I have some good sources for Marine Vinyl, Sewing supplies, training videos etc. They are yours for the asking.

thanks wood, It will be some time before I am at that stage...I would consider doing it during the winter since I wont be going outside, but getting accurate measurements on an upside down cap is going to be a pain...perhaps after I am done wiring and flip her over!
