Mirror 14/Marauder

   I also found the name NH Shepherd.

I am doing well, but the weather will be against me from now on.

	Sounds like progress is being made. I like chutes. So much easier when you have scratch crews.

	It's always nice finding, or leaving your mark for future generations to find when they pull things apart. I dated & signed a boat I built a few years ago....but for anyone to see it again they'd have to have virtually destroyed her !! On houses we've had in the past I've left messages under the wallpaper, & I left behind a really nice oak fire surround in our old cottage with a card from me & my old Dad. Wish I stripped out when we left....... being the last thing my Dad helped me build.

	When I took the chute out yesterday I discovered the builder had painted his intials inside - MAT, along with the year - 1973. It's as old as her indoors!

	Cooooool. It's only sad if you don't use it. :-) Mind you, stuff is ggod, because you never know when you might need it, and it's nice to know that you can if you wanted too.

	A brush down and loads of vacuum cleaning is a good start. Then so long as it stays reasonably dry you are off to a flyer. We all look forward to the pics of you girls out on the water in that 14 btw. How exciting.

	Thanks Pierre - and I thought the same about the lack of varnish! It will get on the water, but it will take a while I fear.

	Well at least you don't have to strip it. Quick old boats those. After I built a Mirror with my dad, I badgered him for ages to get one of these. No joy though, just a clip round the ear. Get it on the water.
