I remember riding the number 33 DeCamp bus into NYC from Bloomfield when I was a kid. Doug

That has tumblehome, but it's not a barrelback. the transom on a barrelback is one smooth curve from one chine to the other. You don't see the sheer lines in the transom of a barrelback. This is a...

Thank you, Matt.

Thanks, Rob. Great pictures!

I had both eyes done a little over a year ago, ten days apart. Still need glasses for close up, but very happy with the results. Medicare paid the whole bill for the basic surgery I had. If you want...

58 Cadillac I believe. Doug

Again, nearly percent. What does that mean? I'm guessing that may be an autocorrect thing. Doug

I've been injected with that stuff for a PET scan about 4 years ago. It's interesting when they take the needle out of a lead box to inject you. Doug

Can't wait to see the rest of Boatober. Doug

I did that once too. Create an account, then Wordle remembers your stats for you. Doug

I still read it. Great magazine. Doug

Looking forward to seeing pictures of the hardware. Doug

Looks great! Doug

My dad, Wilbur Reeve, was an army medic in the South Pacific in WWII. Doug

Is he ever not in full nerd mode? Doug

Due to cancer, I've had 8 cystoscopies if I'm not mistaken. At least I'm down to 1 a year now. Doug

My wife did Cologuard. It came back positive so she had to have a colonoscopy anyway, which didn't find any problems. Doug

I don't think that's quite as radical as you think. Most of the black you see under the boat is black paint if I'm not mistaken. Doug

Please do keep posting! Doug

It's mostly stacked in 3 racks. Two are stacked about 6 1/2 ft wide and 4 ft high. One is 8 ft long and 4 ft high. Also a small stack that wouldn't fit in the racks about 3 ft wide and 3 ft high. The...

We just had a "cord" delivered recently. It was a small dump truck load, who knows how much it really was. It was $185. Mostly oak, some walnut, maple, and poplar. Doug

Just for information's sake, COSTCO has withdrawn it's Kirkland Signature hearing aids from the market for now. I was told at COSTCO they may bring them back sometime next year. Apparently they had...

Menstrual cycle calculator? Doug

Love em all! Doug

Oars are traditionally made from flat sawn boards from what I was told at the WoodenBoat School oar making class I took this summer. Doug

As far as I know they are still available thru WoodenBoat magazine. Doug
Oops. I just looked and when you look at the listing it says they are no longer available. Not sure why they don't just...

I had a 1972 Fiat 850 Spyder. The engine was actually 903cc by then. A cadillac of the same era had more displacement in one cylinder. Yours musta been an earlier model if it was still 847cc. It was...

Thanks. If you do it the square section can help counterbalance the oars also. Doug

I made these last week in the Traditional Oar making class at WoodenBoat School. 7 1/2', Sitka Spruce, spoon blade. Doug

Beautiful boat! Doug

Just saw a Rivian in Lake George Village, NY a couple days ago. Pretty ugly to me. Doug

I like having someone else pump my gas. Doug

gorgeous boat! Doug

No help if you want to purchase plans, but you can at least look at the web site on the WayBackMachine: https://web.archive.org/web/20220126082348/https://spirainternational.com/

Nice area. I grew up in Bloomfield. Doug

Granddaughter, Grandson-in-law, Great Grandson. Doug

My first personal computer was a Timex Sinclair 1000. It came standard with 4k memory. I splurged on the 16k expansion module. Data storage was on a cassette tape recorder. Doug

Very pretty boat. There is a book about the history of Lyman you might enjoy called "Lyman Boats-Legend of the Lakes" by Tom Koroknay. According to the book I would look for the hull number on the...

Nope. I'm 72. Doug

I had some Gigantic Dad Pants when I was at the WoodenBoat School last summer. It was really good! Doug

I would be interested if still available. I've been driving up there to ski at Mt Peter every week this year anyway. Doug

This video is actually copied from a guy on YouTube that calls himself MacroMachines. He's a college age kid building this car from scratch. There are about 50 episodes so far and it's pretty...

I would love to have a fraction of your talent. Doug

Another view of the Miss Detroit. The owner told me there are only 2 of these engines in existance. His and the other is in the Smithsonian is what he told me. Doug

Yup, cold here in Jersey. I like it that way. Been out skiing 3 times so far. Doug

PM Flo-Mo. I believe those are his plans. He is a member on here. Doug

Here is mine. Doug

I have one of those. Makes round tenons. Doug

My dad was on Luzon with the army at that point, I believe. Doug

Been there, done that. A lot of it should go away, but you will probably still end up with quite a few floaters, I know I did. Doug
