It's been in the mad scientist lab all day! When I'm through it will weigh 300lbs and sink a battleship! You're right though. Given that I had not repaired it since PR and Mike was probably not thinking what hell I put my boats through. . . It was getting a bit "thin". LOL! haha! It’s been in the mad scientist lab all day!

I think there are little Rockpool sparkles embedded in the mango gelcoat right under the Current Designs logo on my Gulfstream.

That would make your longest crossing 42-46 miles, or 10.5-15.5 hours depending on speed and start and end points. ...sometimes I have to wonder which rabbit we're following...Alice's or Donnie Darko's.

They tend to get confused and make really dumb mistakes. Some got lost and started heading in the wrong direction, in one case the paddler was completely turned around. I once tried to drive for 36 hours straight and after about 18 or 20 hours I started to loose it and had to sleep to regain my sanity.
