Thanks for the encouragement! I find that I enjoy the getting as much or more than the having! I have several boats that I am working on now and love every second of it. I have no annual leave or sick leave saved up having spent it working on boats! This next season may prove to be one of the best. Paul and Howard, you are quite right. The fixing and enjoying is a lifestyle and I love it. Everyday of work brings a new bit of knowledge and understanding. I am in no hurry to burn out. Engines and props first, then the anchor!
