    Probably going to drive up Friday night so I don't have to get up at 3am to make it on Saturday morning.

    What time does this shindig happen anyways?

    Had a great time! Thanks again to Mark for letting me pilot the Graf Spee! Needless to say I'm hooked.

    Big thanks also to Kas and Mark for running me through all the tricks and avoidances to get me going with my build(s).

    Fletcher kit was sitting on the porch when I got home. Already well underway in the build!

    VERY nice to meet you.
    I knew you would love it
    Building the boats can be hard but you seem to "clear that hurdle in street shoes"
    There is some uniqueness to building a boat that will survive a sink,
    we are here for you
    Welcome to the squadron!
