Cenizas Posted January 5 Share #1 Posted January 5 Hello everyone, My name is Travis and I live in Utah, USA. I am 47 years old and work and forensic stuff for a local law enforcement agency. I work 4 days a week and have found I have too much spare time at home during my days off, especially during the winter months. I decided to get into this hobby to give myself something to do at home when work isnt calling. I've already completed my first little Dory and am working on boat number two! Looking forward to interacting with you guys! -Travis mtaylor, ccoyle, Helge Hafstad and 8 others 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
