Wonder how long it will take to get there...

What great co-operation, but I hope youve sneaked a picture or two onto the toy steam bible Mc-Mc

I would guess 2 - 3 weeks barring any screw ups.  Hopefully, bypassing the Haz Mat BS should make for smoother sailing.

Can't thank Michael enough for all his assistance.  Greatly looking forward to her arrival.

I just noted it seems to be painted a more white-ish color on the hull than on other Seekadetts...Am I seeing things wrong?

Not that it matters a bit..It is a find and purchase of a life time

A small photo montage.





Not my first choice of music.  The original soundtrack was deleted by You Tube for copyright reasons.

As if a 2.32 minute excerpt from an obscure 5.52 minute jazz track, attached to pictures of a steam launch, could possibly threaten anyone's copyright.  If anything, it could only promote the original.

This policy is really starting to p... me off.  WMG's naked greed is getting to be something of a joke.  The same song is available in an 8.32 minute live version on You Tube in it's entirety.

That is such a lovely boat, I cant wait to see a video of it in the VI.

I was reported to YouTube by a "friend" that works for the RIAA and believe that is why each and every time I try to include music on my videos they block it. No music on ,y videos at all.
