Yeah good sense of humour there.

Plenty of people will be getting some good ideas and possible inspiration from your work. (wish I had a TIG welder)

For me this is the first boat that I have restored/upgraded, have had plenty of practice with restoring cars so some skills were transferable. Whereas some other areas needed plenty of research and planning.

Being patient with the process and methodical seems to do the job for most tasks.

Re-decking the hulls like you have done would have made for a larger job ,that's for sure. What you have been doing looks pretty thorough and will make old shy a much better boat to sail. I like many others am keen to see what else that you have In store for both of your mossies.
