Here’s a snap from WoodenBoat Forum friend John B catching up on the latest news from Barnegat Bay. Photo taken during the family cruise up to the warmer bits of New Zealand. The joy continues.

Once again, at the sizzle. Which the frequency of will need to decline lest I fail to fit through the hatch. But so good; especially on days like this. Hope to have some down below after the coming storm.

Finally, one more last look shot. Never get tired of it.
What a boat. I never noticed the rail around the deck before. I might just steal that idea. Is it just screwed in from below?
John,
Thanks for the comment. The rails are screwed through the deck into the clamp. I think they are fastened with flat head, #14 stainless steel screws.
Needless to say I’m following along with your preparations*. What a dream fufilled.
Best,
Russ
