It's easy when you say it quickly  :P

I have a similar list. Except I am working backwards.....am presently on item 1.

"sit below and dream"  ;D

Umm...Frank, you're making us look like slackers and tired too boot by publishing that list. :)

Welll....it's finally out of the shop.I think the 2 biggest days are when you're peeling back the tape after painting and then the 'out of the shop' or moving it the yard day.Both signify major changes in the boats condition.

Still "under roof....never launched"
