[quote="Fliger747"]Actually unfortunately no, I live in the sub arctic with extremely slow internet and it's not worth the time to attempt to load a photo that I may out may not be interested in. No internet blind dates!

Anyway enjoy your project! Regards: Tom[/quote]

She coming on she will be a very nice model on the water when finished. Keep up the good work.
