I think I just found Surf Dad's next boat. It's all about the materials, Wood!

OMG! Did the builder commit suicide afterwards?! I hate working with wood, but is that a gorgeous look or what? Reminds me of the old Chris Crafts!

Thanks for the chuckle Ed. How have you been?

Been OK but, Dad passed monday.

I absolutely love those wooden boats. Years ago we were boating on Buckeye Lake, east of Columbus. We passed one of the private islands and saw a covered boat dock with about three Chris Crafts. There was an old white haired man sitting on the bench. The next day at work someone told me that Dave Thomas (Wendy’s founder) owned one of those private islands. That had to be him on the bench.

Oh Ed, I'm so sorry for your loss. It's got to be so hard to lose a parent.

Wendy's! That's so interesting. I can't imagine owning three of those wooden CC's.
