That WAS pretty sweet! Congrats.

Glad you were safe. I was worried about my daughter in Iowa, but they managed OK -- just some hail.

Sonny, I greatly admire your determination, and after four lumbar fusions, I have been down that pain road. Best of luck.

Rats. A break in the action. Got crampons for Bryce?

Super appreciate the time you are taking to document your work on the Lowe and share it here. And congratulations on your diligence!

Quite a metamorphosis! I'll bet the guy you bought it from would be stunned.

Impressed with your industry so far. Painting prep tries my patience, too. Any guess what your bare hull weighs?

Following. Looks like there is a capable vessel under all the weeds and stains.

So impressed with your dedication and skills!

Thanks friend. I know that Texas is possibly the toughest state in the union on titling old boats, and sorry for this, as there is so much boating water in your state.

Well, rats. Stuck behind pontoons until spring ...

Stump, nothing wrong with a Valco either.

LDUBs -- or the bottom of a Civil War ironclad. Dang that looks tough!

Mercy sakes that's a big cat! Well done! 8)

That's just really clever.

Still can't get over the "Jules Verne" vibe with this fascinating hull. Almost expect Captain Nemo himself to step out onto the deck! :D

They had a good reputation back home in the Northwest for being a tough boat that runs pretty dry. I have rented Gregors but never owned one. I liked them.

Glad this old ship is in caring hands again. Looks like it has so much potential. I'm not surprised it is turning heads. If you replaced the front windows with oversized goggles it would look like a Steampunker's dream! :LOL2:
