Bill...let's hope...we exchange Christmas cards but haven't heard from him or his wife since then!! ;)

His last activity on the forum was in May of this year.
Miss him. Bill |
I'm here!
Shawn texted me. We're alive and well. Boat still on the hard:rolleyes:. Spent most of this past year doing remodel on a second house that we got for cheap. Doing some boat stuff and staying to myself for the while. Had a trip planned for new York an on down to Fla. But chucked those tickets back. We will someday though.. Thanks for the thoughts. I'll post more tomorrow. Ta, Russ. |
I was about to go dig out your Christmas letter if you didn't show up and give an update! I couldn't remember the status of the boat. :)

Glad to hear it! These days, when someone abruptly drops off the net, we start to worry. |

So,
In August we went to Iceland. Found this in a little museum (pic) It's from a farmers fishing dink. Made around 1900. Was installed in the boat in the 1930s and used until the late 1960s. How's that for stalwart service? |
Sweet indeed
Hey Russ good to see your fine.
That's a really nice piece! With a few spur gears and a few shafts you'll have power winches for [I]Whiskey Jack[I]. Some polishing and a bit of TLC and she'll run again if she can spin. I just donated my leather bound babbitt scraping tool set to a collector friend last year, otherwise they'd possibly be on your way. I am going to be looking for a small launch soon and want a "open engine" to shine and show off:rolleyes:. Dave Neptune :cool: |
Oh Dave,
Sorry to disappoint but I just saw it in a museum. Would have been a tad difficult to get it past the docents, US customs, airline baggage restrictions, and of course; my wife. I considered it though. Tell us more about you dream project. I do have that Atomic 2 and parts engine that I never did anything with. You'd be the one that could get it running if anyone. https://www.moyermarineforum.com/for...ead.php?t=8588 R. |
