        Evening Chris,

        You may have wondered why you haven't seen any comments from me for a long while. I can only apologize for that Sir, but there is a reason for it. I won't get into it right now, but I will say that your Tiger build has been a most incredible feat and even more incredible journey to follow!!! I can't wait to see her on the water and under her own power. I will definitely fill you in on my thoughts before then my friend (plays Twilight Zone theme now)!!!...

        Prost
        Allen

                Methinks Ian is referring to multiple quotes on one post Chris instead of individual replies!!!
                You can still reply to everyone’s posts but do it with one multiple quote post.
                That’s the ‘quote+’ thingumy at the bottom next to reply!!!
                Hope that makes sense!!!

                  Just shy of five years for a "project" of this magnitude don't seem excessive when you do the math......'bout 5 pages a month if me "calcs" are correct

                        It's been a pleasure watching the progress. Your mega patience in sorting problems out has been second to none.

                        Very well done indeed.
