I love this community, that’s a big reason I made this thread, obviously this is the internet, and some guys are quick to speculate without knowing anything, it’s all good, all you guys are good people in my books. There’s only one way to stop the trolling….
Build the boat! But even then some guys won’t like me… it’s all good.
Yes it seems like since I got married the build stopped…. But rest assured my wife said that’s only a coincidence
Wasn’t feeling too well beginning of September for a bit, hopefully that issue is gone. At the same time I fell behind at the shop with Ron’s work, and he had a stack of jobs to be completed, didn’t leave us anytime to work on the commander, and we ran like that till Christmas, then Ron had surgery and took medical leave, should be finished now but hasn’t been answering my phone calls for a few weeks now
Now business… Last couple months I spent opening up a new shop , no effin partners!!!!
And I just got approved to legally open my doors today
I’m running 2 shops now but I have significantly changed the way I run it, hopefully resulting in a lot more time to play for me. I had to get off the forum for a bit to completely concentrate on business and been working as hard getting everything ready like the first few months of my build.
Now I’m ready to get back at it…
And this whole time I had to keep my mouth shut…. Do you know how hard that was for me?!??!? LoL
Thanks Bucket

When I started this thread I laughed to myself and said “Haha Raincity, the only way you are going to beat this thread is to pod your commander”
I can’t wait for that thread to start, if you pull it off @Rain City it will be the most epic thread ever in the history of this forum

Nobody comes to my shop because it has fancy yellow posts… they come to see me, for the “facked up” service I provide LoL.
It’s too easy Seth, I take anything I want around my area and no other shop around here has any chance against me and my facked up shop

Work equals mess. More work equals more mess and sometimes you just want to get home. It's like leaving dishes in the sink except there's no ol lady motivating you to clean up your mess lolNobody comes to my shop because it has fancy yellow posts… they come to see me, for the “facked up” service I provide LoL.

Nice forklift. Pneumatic tires. Just take that quad down, sell it make room for a pair of 2 5 zeros
If your not making a mess your not fixing shiit. I like the new shop. Lots more room for more mess and more crap lol

Everything has it place in my shop, I just haven't put things back in its place for a few months. However this year is the first year in 25 years that I make it home for dinner every night.

So I took the ferry down to Shelter island yesterday and spoke with my pal about a game plan for the commander. Moving forward, the first thing is to asses our work done. I’m super happy with my hull but I have a few issues with the gel coat…. Half of it wasn’t finished and polished right away.
I’m going to drop it off sometime next week for a proper evaluation. At the same time the carpenter will give me a few options for the interior. I got my electrical and pod guy figured out, so will put that on hold.
I have lots of things fighting me right now, the biggest is my personal goal of having a boat on the water this summer, but there’s lots of options to work around that, like trading in my thunderjet for a temporary boat ( 1974 Bertram with 2013 diesels )
For the build it self, the best way is to take it slow, and get rid of my summer deadline,
And plan to have it on the water for next year.
I don’t have time to put into the commander like last year, I will need a lot of help to complete it. That said it’s still possible to have it built by the summer, it’s just gonna cost me a arm and a leg to get it done.
