Now living in reality, I venture into the boat building website. People still enamored with the concept and process of catamaran construction hash out the pros and cons of various methods, materials and techniques. My cynical self cannot bear to participate in such discussions as it all seems irrelevant. I would give them my expertise (??) and wisdom (Double ??) but would only be ignored. People would only hear what they want to hear. It's best if I just shut up. What do I know anyway. I only built a third of a boat.
The winds again came from the north and prevented any attempt at boat endeavors. Unrestricted 25 mile per hour winds coupled with cold for the south temperatures made a reading a book with a space heater on in the hulls a necessity. Oh the sacrifices we make.

For a few years I have been trying to figure out where to put some sort of depth finder. I bought. a fish finder a few years ago and mulled it over. I have a transom mount transducer which must be under water. I searched websites. I read discussions. I consulted friends. What I ended up with was confusion and always put it away "for later". I decided that it was later enough, dammit! I re-entered the same old confusion with a couple newer friends. I actually got the same response we have all heard before. "You're a smart guy, you'll figure it out". I just may have....... Don't share these plans with anybody. I don't want them stolen and patented.
Draw it out. Plans emerge and fade away. Concepts are accepted then rejected. I talk to people until they gently attempt an escape. I let them go. I just need to sound it out in my own head. The cool weather is preventing any epoxy work.
Ben will be starting his new job next month. Hopefully he will be able ti stay local for a while. When he moves I will have to make some sort of decision. I built both the house and the boat. It's not a simple decision. Boat time is limited.
