Yes, probably in a couple of weeks. I've been slammed by work and family for the last several weeks. Itching to get out but cant' do it yet.

Chief: She's beautiful. Can't wait to hear a sailing report. I'm sure many of us will be admiring her lines from astern next March . . .

Wow it is finally at the stage where it looks like a boat! I have not visited the blog in some time and was glad to see how far the raider had come.

Looking forward to reading the reports of her first sea trials.

Thanks.

Although my progress has slowed down a lot due to hot weather and my job, I try to get at least one thing done every day. I am very close to being done, but the first launch is probably a couple of weeks away.
