My first chorus has already begins….making coffee and breakfast…….poor me If I have to do more, there is not less building time anymore….so please help me? Ben, I know that it will be better when I scratch a new transom instead of putting a piece of wood on it. We shall see how it ends. Maybe the beginning of a career to the dark side?
