Rolf,
I think it is because there is no one, two, three or four people that deserve more praise than anyone else working at growing the class.

We have a lot of great people working very hard and to praise a few is just not fair to the others.

Lets find a way out of this mine field and get back to work at growing the class.

Can you answer a question for me. The hull work is looking good but after you sent that pic to me of what it's like outside I have been wondering how are you going at curing resin in the cold with all that snow around? It must be cold.
What temp are you getting up to for the resin?
Did you get a resin designed to cure in cold temps?
If you can bring the resin up to a reasonable temp the viscosity changes and you can use less because it goes on thinner. Just have shorter gel time.
Well............
