And to think... I was gonna spray foam myself for you guys.

Sheesh.

:P
 

Working on a large cuban mahogany right now. Just got set up on it this weekend. Since I got on Instagram log sales have picked up. Have 2 logs im working on selling......if all goes right I should clear 8,100$ and thats selling at 30$ a board foot. Some are double that price. We are so lucky to have the cuban mahogany niche market almost to ourselves. In ongoing negotiations with shell lumber too. Would be nice to ink a contract for 3-5 logs a year with them. Cool weather and a reorganization of our shop has us fired up to cut more wood !!

At least its not cheese. ;)
 

Morning WIF.

Offf to be a wizard.
 

Well the big day is approaching fast.....I think Wednesday Thursday we will be back in the fishing boat. 6 months of repairs and endless battles with insurance agents, surveyors, and lawyers, and were finally ready to get back to fishing. I can't wait to blow this popsicle stand and get out of here. Hey ARC....guess who I'm gonna get to see....remember sads669...Kevin in long Island. Hopefully that will be our first trip.....I have the jasper knabb treasure map to share with him. 49 treasure sites and wrecks from Freeport to memory rock!! Woooo hoooo !! Including another bounce spot for the lucaya wreck. ARC says I havnt been sharing enough treasure stories so there ya go one of my bahama projects !! Look up jasper knabb....you'll be surprised by this guy. When he went to jail, I rifled his yacht when it was for sale. Working under the dash of the bridge i found all the documents and hidden treasure charts from a massive illegal treasure hunting operation. Ive got the mag surveys and everything. I think he has recovered treasure hidden as well in Freeport !!

Kevin sure seems like a great guy to be in /on the water with.
Should you recall upon being in his company , please give him my highest regards.

Good early evening crew mates!
I just restocked the rum room.
Come on back Boatlode!
Here some one pour this rum into the Captain afore he freezes solid and those pffffffs are ice cubes on deck.

Congrats RR very nice score on the buck.

And welcome to Nsdq, & Noah D, and Boatlode pull up a rum keg and have a seat.
 

Yep WD, nothing like being greeted on your return home with the smell of some thing rotting in Denmark, the kitchen, inner walls, and other interior spaces. Does not bode well for a restfull return!
What are all these toosie roll looking things on deck???
 

I am alive, breathing, and on this side of the soil...last I checked. Thank you Bill.
And how about you & yours?
 

We have rain, getting heavier toward 6 pm, and some really wicked wind gusts 55-65mph.
 

They just extended the time line, 10pm into the am. Possible ...the "T" word, & probable power outages.
All this because ARC sent a warm front up here and a cold front is zeroing in from the west.
 

Good evening, fellows.


It's been snowing all day here, and none of it has stuck.
