I am not sure he has any real connection down there.<br /><br />Thanks for the comment and the kinds words.

And I doubt they would work as well if the rudder wasn&#39;t supported by the little ledge on the keel. An intriguing detail.<br />You postings about the sabani project have been educational, indeed, fascinating!
