Thanks to all of you who returned information on my trailer tongue weight situation. I have not been able to get to do anything with it yet due to some family medical priorities, and to a job change. These reasons have also precluded me from doing much on the list for a while. With the job change I will be living and working in the same town and one of the priorities will be to get a computer access at home that will allow participation. Thanks too, to those who commented on the "Jump start kit" power supply system for short term power onboard. I am leaning toward that, versus hand building a system just so I can use a "agm" type battery or a jell cell type. At least until I start spending more than just an overnight on board. To the North West Montgomery sailors that are interested in joining the NWPotters at Lake Pend Orielle. Deena and I are still planning on being there, and I hope that there will be others there as well. Please contact me off list if you are interested and I will still try to do some coordinating if there is intrest. Home e-mail address is hardee@velocitus.net and it is really an old and tired system, consequently very slow and so the M boat list on it is a very painful process. I'll do my best to try and keep up. Thanks for making my slower nights, much better, even a learning clinic with a nice touch of humor thrown in. You all are wonderful source, a good check/balance system, and an encouragement along the project lines. Thanks and Happy Sails to You Harvey H M-15 #348 Pelican Walla Walla, WA
