    Dave did you get my PM I sent you? I don't think they are working.

            Hi David,

            How did the wet tests go?

                I got as far as trimming the boat, but no time to take it to a larger body of water to check out underway performance -- that'll happen soon as I finish the paint-job. Got to get pictures off to Mr. Caswell so he can post them to the catalog.

                I just keep packing in the details and am way behind schedule -- Ellie has even started sending my plates into the shop to speed things along!

                (Who the hell told her to do THAT, Mike?!...)

                Stand-by this Bat Channel, at this Bat Time for further developments! ...

                David,

                                        Lodts of foam in there dave. Are you going with a bigger WTC for production?

                                        I can cast syntactic foam saddles if needed

                                            Yeah, that might be an excellent after-market thing: cast foam pieces to fit either side of the SD.

                                            Nope, that a production SD. Just like yours.

                                            Take it away!

                                                    A bit, yes, but I like a reserve -- and remember: my boat was an ultra-thin one with less than normal topside weight.

                                                    David,
