Re: 1980 Sea Nymph SS 165
So, tell us what really happened. Did you look at her wrong? Did she see you make eye contact with the islander? Did you taunt her? (Tinnies are prickly that way)...I like the way you went to great lengths to stage out some props like the grinder and torn gloves, when we all know it was the sharp triangle of tin in the background that did the damage. All kidding aside, very glad you are okay!
The glassers in that part of Michigan are passing the message around about the bad mojo going on at the Jas & son's boatworks. Like in
The Happening, they just leave out the part at the end that after Tinny's get stripped, gutted, and cut, that Jas actually rebuilds them better then they were before: faster, stronger, just generally better all around. Kind of like a modern day Oscar Goldman. The glassers on the other hand, well if you are here reading this thread, you're probably familiar with some of Jason's non-fleshy appendage modifications with power tools when used on down trodden glassers. They do NOT recieve the
Steve Austin treatment.....
This ^^^ is just IMHO, the glassers & tinny's are
probably not out to get him:facepalm: Take car of the wounded hand....
Did you manage to avoid the tendons on the back of that part of your hand. I won't ever play the piano, flute or anything else that requires much strength in my right ring & pinky fingers, they each only have 1 of the 2 normally present tendons.... Duh, but an entirely different cause... Still dumb...
So this kinda makes you like a middle-man...or a halfway house for wayward tinnies...
Yep, send him your forlorn & forgotten tin boats and he'll fix them right up & send them down the road on another's trailer hitch, if only to make room for the next. It's a perfect circle, 1 boat in, 1 boat out...... 1 boat out, 1 boat in...... & repeat
Better hang that Merc repair sign out front and be on the lookout for "Authorized Starcraft/Smoker Craft/Tin Boat Service Center" sign....I think you are getting close to "boatnut's" stable count......I think he's up to 7... and jbcurt got up to like 7 or 8 there for a minute, but most were fiberglass, so they were only good for salvage...:facepalm:
Uhhh, GT, don't let the Bassassin see you talking that glasser smack, he'll recruit the BBE for some serious GT1M beat downs........
The new Jet replacement rig looks like a really good Jas conversion project. And a 90hp max rating, outstanding! Great looking platform & soon to be a wide open canvas just like the Jet was.....
You need to work on getting a cable tv deal to get the:
Jason 'The Tin Man' show, on a cable station this fall. 12-16 episode deal, 1 show per week, through the winter off season.... walk some folks through a typical restoration/conversion...... Helpful how to's & a what not to do's.... Maybe the spotlight of the week could be some finer points of battery placement:facepalm: The hows, the whys.... Maybe do the same with the some alternate means of achieving sufficient flotation below decks.........
Seems like everyone's jumping on the 16 footer band wagon........ Hmmmm, I wonder who's next?
Have a good week planning, plotting, visualizing getting the hand wrap off & getting back on the SN. Heal fully & quickly.
