Posts: 1,304 Gulf Coast relocated from Cali... | Thanks for the Kudos guys. Eric, I was on the Flesh Rocket of Larry Ferber (man that didn't sound right at all). And to set the record straight, I don't mind the sight of blood. I just cringed a little when I glued my thumb to Dennis's ear. I would like to see a pic of the scar to see how it came out.

They do it all, run races, teach Hobie 101 and 102, support, plan, and conduct all Hobie activities, support all youth programs and Sail Sand Point. Just returned from a road trip to the Hobie Cat Factory in California to bring back five new (fiberglass) Hobie's. They do it all.

Posts: 12,310 South Carolina | what like this? You are in the rare 5 star club...it's a user rating made by other users. I think one sub-5 star vote and 5 stars are pretty much gone forever for you.

Lee You mean more than the pictures that are with the story? Rick does have a lot more pictures, but he doesn't have time to put them somewhere accessible. I have time, but I don't know how to do it, and Rick doesn't have time to show me. Sorry. About the stars under people's names. Those are based upon ratings that person has been given by other people on the forum. If you hold your mouse arrow over the stars, it will tell you how many ratings that person has gotten. Often, when somebody has five stars (the maximum), it means they have only been rated once, as in your own case. The more ratings someone has been given, the more likely that they will have fewer stars, because not everybody will give you a five-star rating, and the ratings will be averaged -- just like on a store site where people rate their satisfaction with a product. | | | Re: 2007 Hats-off award nominees

I promise to be good. Thanks again, Mary, for waiting up till midnight for us to register! That was very nice. I have heard many great things about you and it was nice to finally meet you in person.

Posts: 851 US Western Continental Shelf | Tips? Lee, you want tips? Here are two:
1) Fasten the boat to the trailer when stored 2) Don't land on the beach like a lawn dart
My vote for Lee as well and I'm glad that the story about the ear is finally hitting the forum. He spontaneously became a sew-up doctor, well glue-up anyway, and made a broken guy whole enough again that made the difference between having to go to the hospital and being able to get back on the water in the Tiger Nationals.
I am also looking forward to seeing scar pictures of this part time plastic surgeon's work.
Lee's got a contagious sense of humor that breaks the tension and turns nervous moments to good times. He's a gleaming example of the generous fellows you find in this sport.
