Strip: True Confessions, and the 10-Day Stripper

Hey, remember that silly photo I recently posted, where I showed up at the beach with the strongback on the racks instead of the brand new Guillemot? Well, that was only a joke. No, really!

The REAL truth of the matter is that my bud Tony is done with the strongback portion of his building project (http://pics.tonyolsen.com/album27), and I'm borrying his forms to build a Guilly of my own. I was takin' the rig home, that's why it was on my truck.

Since I built that Cormorant in two and a half weeks early last spring, Tony challenged me to strip out a Guillemot in four days (since it took him four months), and have it launched in ten. Said there was no way I could do it. Well, I say he's wrong, and I'm out to prove it.

So tomorrow will be day four... stay tuned to see how I do by this time tomorrow evening!

Cheers, Kurt
