Steve's response to Deane is a real testimonial to the virtues of our hobby. From the challenge of that flawed beauty (of which we don't, or want to notice), to the efforts in putting it back together, and on to the points of where we spend most of our time with these efforts - at home, and most often, the whole family gets to participate! Steve, would love to use your response in the next issue of the Golden Fin Society Newsletter. May I have your permission?
