[QUOTE="TexasJim, post: 493178, member: 24649"] Your title reminded me of a lyric from the Grateful Dead: "One Man Gathers What Another Man Spills." Nice job on "The Junk." I couldn't find much on the history of my build(V-Boat to Flats Skiff Conversion, posted in October), but my Super Chief 14 was built by Blue Star Boats in 1958, in Miami, OK. They must have been aircraft builders, as it's riveted together with thousands of hand-bucked rivets. I cut through a couple of seams, and the dum-dum sealant in the seams was still pliable, after 62 years! Yours is perfect for its intended use. Enjoy and be proud. I get asked about my boat all the time at boat ramps. TexasJim in Rockport, on the Texas Riviera! [/QUOTE]
