Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Re: Freya

Bill, Carsten

As Al pointed out, she wont fit in the UPS overnight express envelope. I was aware of Freya being for sale before I joined the group. She's a fine boat, a testament to her builders passion and skill but, she will never really be any one else's boat now will she? (Rhetorical question)

I could build an airplane, that is a certainty as I have expertise in that field...but nothing "speaks" to her owner quite like a seagoing vessel and submarines are... well special. To actually design and build a functional one is a rare individual lifetime achievement. A lot of people can climb Everest, just pay your money and go fall off, but this...is really special.

Eventually, I will learn this business and get down to making a memory.
