OK, so yesterday I had my THIRD rotator cuff operation! Hence so mayn new posts today as I am off work for 2 weeks.  

Here is how we go to Cape San Blas in Florida each year. 

These are the 3 boats we have in Atlanta now. Paul's ROONIO is in Philadelphia. These three are all Jim Michalak designs. WOOBO in back, Slam Dink center, and pirogue "Chiquita" in foregroung.

Underside of bridgdeck structure. Thats 3/8" ply to hold MY weight! Also sleeping platform for 2 in optional Bivy tent. Pictures to follow. 

Bridgdeck with one open one closed. Note piano hinge-STRONG! Closed also keeps major water intake while going through surf. 

Footwell cover converted into a hiking seat! A back rest will be contrived and added for EC2006 

Footwell cover in closed position. SS piano hinges from Ebay used here. 

Paul checking out that LOOONG tiller. Shows footwell utility too. 

Assembled stocks/rudders. Gudgions will have to be replaced with sturdier ones for Everglades Challenge 2006.
