We had a GREAT time!
Thanks again to Lawrence! Mike, I'd like all the info you have ~ please e-mail me. AND ... Tony ... what can I say! It was an honor to meet you! I was so thrilled, I forgot to get a picture of you with Jester and me. Until our paths cross again ....

I have no information on your boat. You spoke to the head honcho. So if he doesn't have it, then I have no other source. I take it that you own Jester? Tony is one heck of a literal backyard builder.

Yeah Mike ... we had a whirlwind trip to Lawrence's in Georgia to pick up the boat the Saturday before the NCMM Wooden Boat Show and things just fell into place for us to attend ~ We had 6 days to make her 'show presentable' and do touch-up work to the finish, strip the mast to bare wood, then 4 coats of varnish, reattach the hardware, create the name board and have the re-naming ceremony! WHEW!
I was confused with your statement that you have no information on my boat. The images I sent you last week (did you not receive my PM? - I didn't have any replies from you either to the PM or Lawrence's direct e-mails) with my rigging questions are still unanswered. Mike doesn't recall the mast as 'his' and didn't remember the 'extra' block at the top of the mast. Also, he said that the 4 pages of plans he got when he built the boat were passed along with the boat to you. When we got the boat from Lawrence, he says he only got the one sheet page of the plans. Do you know where the other 3 pages of the plans are? Did you configure the mast hardware? Is the SS fairlead to be used as a downhaul between the boom and the cleats. If so, how do you keep the boom from chafing on the cleat tops? What is the extra block at the top of the mast for? We were all mystified by this arrangement at the show.

I did not get but one page. Of course sometimes I do suffer from Old Foks Diesease. But I don't recall Tony ever giving me but the one. But if Tony could not help you, I surely can't without touching the boat myself. I will pm you and follow up on this later this evening. I am between some coats of varnish myself.
