Thanks for sharing the information. Some more pictures of your minds creative expression (your boat) would be appreciated very much. Especially the details, as that is where the time devil is eating the time in building projects. Wood rudderheads sounds really nice! I bet you have other very interesting details on the boat as well.

I have done a lot of rock climbing and my preferred workout today is gymnastics (the challenges there are endless). Your injury is not unknown in climbing, while gymnasts know about it and build muscles + uses the muscles to avoid these injuries. I hope you can find some exercises that will work for you, as I really believe in using your body. If you dont use it, you loose it.. Sail on! 62 years and you are still a young man, if you want to be one. Guy who taught me to climb was 75 when we started..
